Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

The Harry Potter series has made publishing history and Rowling has achieved more than she ever expected - all because "the idea to create a child who escapes from the confines of the adult world and goes somewhere where he has power, both literally and metaphorically, really appealed to me." As it has to millions of Muggles of all ages. Rowling has received the Hugo Award, the Bram Stoker Award, the Whitbread Award, a special commendation for the Anne Spencer Lindbergh Prize, the Author of the Year title from the British Book Awards, the Whitaker's Platinum Award, and a Book People Outstanding Achievement Award at the 2008 Galaxy British Book Awards and she was named an Officer of the Order of the British Empire. Born in Chipping Sodbury, England, Rowling now resides in Edinburgh, Scotland, with her husband and children.
