Although she writes under the pen name J.K. Rowling, pronounced like rolling, her name when her first Harry Potter book was published was simply Joanne Rowling. Anticipating that the target audience of young boys might not want to read a book written by a woman, her publishers demanded that she use two initials, rather than her full name. As she had no middle name, she chose K as the second initial of her pen name, from her paternal grandmother Kathleen Ada Bulgen Rowling. She calls herself Jo and has said, "No one ever called me 'Joanne' when I was young, unless they were angry." Following her marriage, she has sometimes used the name Joanne Murray when conducting personal business. During the Leveson Inquiry she gave evidence under the name of Joanne Kathleen Rowling. In a 2012 interview, Rowling noted that she no longer cared that people pronounced her name incorrectly.
Rowling was born to Peter James Rowling, a Rolls-Royce aircraft engineer, and Anne Rowling (née Volant), on 31 July 1965 in Yate, Gloucestershire, England, 10 miles (16 km) northeast of Bristol. Her mother Anne was half-French and half-Scottish. Her parents first met on a train departing from King's Cross Station bound for Arbroath in 1964. They married on 14 March 1965. Her mother's maternal grandfather, Dugald Campbell, was born in Lamlash on the Isle of Arran. Her mother's paternal grandfather, Louis Volant, was awarded the Croix de Guerre for exceptional bravery in defending the village of Courcelles-le-Comte during the First World War.
Rowling's sister Dianne was born at their home when Rowling was 23 months old. The family moved to the nearby village Winterbourne when Rowling was four. She attended St Michael's Primary School, a school founded by abolitionist William Wilberforce and education reformer Hannah More. Her headmaster at St Michael's, Alfred Dunn, has been suggested as the inspiration for the Harry Potter headmaster Albus Dumbledore.
As a child, Rowling often wrote fantasy stories, which she would usually then read to her sister. She recalls that: "I can still remember me telling her a story in which she fell down a rabbit hole and was fed strawberries by the rabbit family inside it. Certainly the first story I ever wrote down (when I was five or six) was about a rabbit called Rabbit. He got the measles and was visited by his friends, including a giant bee called Miss Bee." At the age of nine, Rowling moved to Church Cottage in the Gloucestershire village of Tutshill, close to Chepstow, Wales. When she was a young teenager, her great aunt, who Rowling said "taught classics and approved of a thirst for knowledge, even of a questionable kind," gave her a very old copy of Jessica Mitford's autobiography, Hons and Rebels. Mitford became Rowling's heroine, and Rowling subsequently read all of her books.
Rowling has said of her teenage years, in an interview with The New Yorker, "I wasn’t particularly happy. I think it’s a dreadful time of life." She had a difficult homelife; her mother was ill and she had a difficult relationship with her father (she is no longer on speaking terms with him). She attended secondary school at Wyedean School and College, where her mother had worked as a technician in the science department. Rowling said of her adolescence, "Hermione [a bookish, know-it-all Harry Potter character] is loosely based on me. She's a caricature of me when I was eleven, which I'm not particularly proud of." Steve Eddy, who taught Rowling English when she first arrived, remembers her as "not exceptional" but "one of a group of girls who were bright, and quite good at English." Sean Harris, her best friend in the Upper Sixth owned a turquoise Ford Anglia, which she says inspired the one in her books.

TERF
is an acronym that stands for trans-exclusionary radical feminists: The term describes feminists who are transphobic , advocates of radical feminism who do not believe that transgender people's gender identities are legitimate, and who are hostile to the inclusion of trans women in the feminist movement.
Treating trans people with dignity saves lives. Transphobia kills.
It doesn't matter if you understand or not. There is no "just an opinion." Transphobia is violence and there's nothing radical about it.
AND THAT'S WHAT THIS 🖕 PERSON IS! BE CONSCIOUS OF WHAT U SUPPORT!!!!

“Merry Christmas,� said Ron sleepily as Harry scrambled out of bed and pulled on his bathrobe.
“You, too,� said Harry. Will you look at this? I’ve got some presents!�
Harry Potter. 🥰 The Harry Potter series will always be my top favorite. It's the most magical relationship I've ever had with a story. Brings back memories of waiting in line for hours at book release festivals in LA & NYC, and the opening night of each movie. (I love you Snape!)
Scene from The Deathly Hallows Part 2 movie:
Dumbledore: "Lily." "After all this time?"
Snape: "Always."

This is wild !!!! An abridged version of chapter twelve of Sorcerer’s Stone, with the major book specific plots cut (minus Invisibility Cloak), but descriptions of Hogwarts Christmas kept intact. This is the original text, nothing new is added� but the imagery is to DIE FOR !!! I personally LOVE the art and character style that they went with here and think that it makes the story SOAR. This is the exact type of illustrations that I would KILL to see a Harry Potter graphic novel in, and as an adult who grew up with the books and a librarian who conducts story times� this is pure magic. I know some will view as a cash grab, but I simply love seeing illustrations of the Wizarding World and these are stunning. It’s a really really cool thing that they did reimagining the chapter and condensing the magic into a storybook format. This is a lot more manageable for bedtime than the huge illustrated versions, and a great way to include little ones wanting to keep up in the Harry Potter fun. 20/10 illustrations. Magical. The text was really nothing special in this chopped up context, but can’t emphasize the pictures enough!!!

The mixture of societies ejects and rejects, the filth and the fetishist, bottom feeders and attention seekers will throw a hissy fit and try to mess with the rating. Know that the other books speak for itself and this book like the rest will be memorable and magic.
Don’t let the the vast sea of multi colored hair, anime obsessed “they and thems". coddeled by their sanctimonious woke parents who think activism is virtue-signaling on social media ruin THE MAGIC for you or your children
Just watch the thems cope in the review section cause jealous, purposeless and rootless, Haters gonna hate, potatoes gonna potate, roaches gonna rotate.

Christmas at Hogwarts ... is there anything that feels more cozy? I think not, so of course I had to get this book when its publication was announced!
This is basically most of the Christmas chapter from book 1, with a few things left out. We do get the trees, the presents, the games, the food, and (most importantly) the companionship though, so we have everything we need for a perfec Christmas.
Since HP's original illustrator, Jim Kay, has had to take a break, this book was illustrated by Ziyi Gao, a Chinese illustrator now living in Canada.
She did a very good job, especially with the animals, buildings, trees etc., though I thought the kids looked too old (since this takes place during book 1) and the Asian style that shone through wasn't 100% to my liking - though I'm fully aware that is probably because I spent the last xxx years looking at Jim Kay's version (it's like trying to listen to Jim Dale's version of the audiobooks, it just doesn't work).
All in all, nothing new from a story perspective, but new and highly enjoyable illustrations that wonderfully illustrate (see what I did there?) everything nice about Christmas! :D
P.S.: I hope this one will be successful enough that we'll get something similar for Halloween! ;)

Svi znamo koliko je sve vezano uz najpoznatijeg čarobnjaka genijalno, zar ne? U slikovnici „Božić u Hogwartsu� J.K. Rowling imamo jedan mali segment u kojem je sačuvan pravi dječji trenutak proživljenog Božića.
🎄 Što nam više treba da nam dan bude čaroban ako imamo uz sebe prijatelje koji misle na nas i od kojih dobijemo darove ispod bora kojima se nismo nadali? Kada nam je Božić bijeli i imamo se s kime grudati do iznemoglosti pa se onda i pogostiti raznim slatkišima i delicijama koje su nam pripremili dragi profesori, običan nam dan učine nezaboravnim. „Obični� su ovo trenutci koji znače najviše na svijetu i griju srce iskrenom privrženošću i prijateljstvom. Dobrota koja se ne može kupiti...
🎄 Slikovnica „Božić u Hogwartsu� J.K. Rowling bit će zabavna onima koji će čitati i onima kojima će biti čitano. Iako iz knjiga i filmova znamo dijelove ove priče, predivne ilustracije Ziyi Gao koju je studirajući biokemiju duboka strast prema umjetnosti i ilustraciji potaknula da se prebaci na Fakultet vizualnih umjetnosti u New Yorku, gdje je i diplomirala, odvest će nas direktno u Hogwarts.
🎄 Detalji na svakoj stranici će nas potaknuti dublje maštati što će možda biti mali poguranac za ponovno čitati ili gledati serijal uz koji ćemo otputovati u poseban svijet u kojem svi možemo uživati. Najbolji je ovo bijeg od stvarnosti, za sve uzraste.

December 29, 2024Вирішила взяти цю книжку і прочитати у Різдво. Кращого часу для неї годі й шукати.
Розповідає вона про перше Різдво Гаррі Поттера у Гоґвортсі. Фактично це епізод з першої частини оригінального циклу, але розширено проілюстрований.
Книжка тонка, тексту у ній на 10 хвилин читання. Основну увагу тут привертають ілюстрації. Прикріпила кілька фото, щоб ви могли їх оцінити 👀
Якщо ви фанат серії - це буде гарне доповнення до колекції.

Letto tutto d’un fiato nell’edizione italiana, edito da Salani, “Natale a Hogwarts� altro non è se non il capitolo dedicato alla mattina di Natale in “Harry Potter e la pietra filosofale�. Arricchito dalle bellissime ed eteree illustrazioni dell’artista cinese Ziyi Gao, torniamo con un po� di nostalgia al momento in cui Harry riceve il famigerato Mantello dell’Invisibilità, prima di scoprire il valore e la grandiosità di quel dono.
Per ora, lui, Ron e gli altri fratelli Weasley, sono ancora dei ragazzi spensierati e felici di aver ricevuto i loro doni.
Perfetto per una breve lettura, mentre si sorseggia una tazza di té 🎄

Las ilustraciones son de las más bonitas que he visto.
Ahora bien, ¿de verdad esta era la traducción original en castellano? Sé que hace mucho que no releo el primer libro en español, pero no la recordaba así... Tal como aparece en esta versión, tiene cosas bastante mejorables😕.

Vianoce v Rokforte si nekúpite preto, že si budete chcieť prečítať o Harryho prvých skutočných Vianociach, ale najmä preto, že budete chcieť vlastniť kúsok prekrásneho umenia od talentovanej Ziyi Gao. Ja som sa do jej ilustrácií zamilovala. 🥹🎄🎨🪄�

Art is definitely a 5/5, but come on... I already gave my stars to the series. All is good. This is... okay.

Nisam ni skontala da je zapravo samo ilustrovano poglavlje iz Kamena mudrosti. Ilustracije su mogle da budu više magične, ali ajde, za decu je okej.

� the cutest little holiday read
� since this is just an abridged version of a chapter from the sorcerer’s stone, i’m not going to give it a rating. however, that doesn’t mean i didn’t enjoy this! i’d forgotten how cozy and sweet harry’s first christmas at hogwarts is, and this was a wonderful reminder. <3
� the found-family between harry and the weasleys portrayed in just a few pages here is so adorable! ron, fred, george, and even percy include harry as if he’s their own kin, and it’s precious. also, mrs. weasley is such an icon! her sending harry his very own weasley sweater will never fail to make me tear up. overall, this was such a pleasant little read, even if it was less than fifty pages (lol.) i would definitely recommend this to big harry potter fans! the artwork perfectly captures the nostalgic feeling and coziness of a hogwarts christmas.
