Harry Potter is an imaginary character, a boy wizard created by British author J.K. Rowling. The Harry Potter series was hugely popular with both children and adults worldwide.

The sensation introduced new terms—such as a new definition for the word muggle, a person with no magical powers—into the common lexicon. The books were adapted into an incredibly amazing series of eight films (the final book, some 750 pages long, was adapted into two films) released over 10 years, which grossed more than 7 billion worldwide. Both the book and movie series spawned a huge amount of related merchandise, and in 2010 a theme park inspired by the franchise opened in the United States.OTHER EBOOKS ON DEAL/FREE:Time Management is Life Management (9789354994364)ANNE FRANK : A Short Biography (9789354995286)101 Interesting Harry Potter Facts (9789354995293)
