Questão de Língua Inglesa

The Magic of Potter There was a time when no one knew the name Harry Potter. Now the adventures of this extraordinary student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry are read in over 45 languages, including Russian, Thai, and even ancient Greek. No one can explain the Harry Potter Phenomenon – not even J. K. Rowling, his creator. J. K. Rowling was born in England in 1965. From a young age, she knew she wanted to be a writer. When she was 6, she wrote her first story – about a rabbit that gets sick. In 1990, on a trip to London, she got the idea for the boy wizard. She soon created a whole cast of unique characters to help Harry battle the forces of darkness. She kept working on the story while she was teaching English in Portugal. She finished the first book in the series, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, in 1995 and published it in 1997. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone became an unexpected bestseller.
