Harry Potter, over the years.....

I received this book from a friend of mine who knows how much I love JK Rowling and her famous literary "offspring", Harry Potter. I zipped through this interesting little book quickly and its a nice addition to any Potterphile's collection. The book charts the history of Rowling's creation from its earliest beginnings by using articles and interviews with the author and stars of the celebrated movies. The articles/interviews are an insight into the popular series from its meek beginning, its burgeoning popularity to its overwhelming appeal and worldwide adoration. There are lots of little tidbits and trivia that will appeal to fans of Harry Potter fans, young and old. A recommended quick read for fans who love the magical world of JK Rowling.
