The Author


Joanne Rowling, born 31 July 1965 better known as J. K. Rowling is a British author best known as the creator of the Harry Potter series. Her mother and father were both Londoners. Her pen name was J. K. Rowling because she was fear the people wouldn't read her books if she was a women. She wrote the draft of Harry Potters off a paper towel. The idea of this book came to her when she was delayed from a train from Manchester to London. The story of a young boy attending a wizard school came to mind. Then all of the character came flooding in her mind. The first book she wrote it when her mother just died so she felt what the young boy in the book was feeling. So that why her first book was filling up with emotions of the boy not have parents. J. K. Rowling books are inspiring to children at the time when they started abandoning books for television.
