Harry Potter Books

It all started with the publication of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in June 1997. Word-of-mouth slowly built in playgrounds up and down the land. Pretty soon parents and children alike were hooked.

Soon, Harry’s adventures became a seven-book series, with bookshops across the globe opening at midnight to allow queuing fans the chance to buy the new book first thing on the date of publication. J.K. Rowling’s novels have now entered the canon of essential children's literature as surely as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.                          

Rowling recently gave her fans the best surprise they could hope for: the announcement of new additions to the canon of the wizarding world. The brand new play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child continues Harry's story, while the film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, inspired by the book of the same name, introduces new characters across the pond.
