About this audiobook
Everyone loves Harry Potter. Now kids can learn about Harry's creator!
In 1995, on a four-hour-delayed train from Manchester to London, J. K. Rowling conceived of the idea of a boy wizard named Harry Potter. Upon arriving in London, she began immediately writing the first book in the saga. Rowling's true-life, rags-to-riches story is as compelling as the world of Hogwarts that she created. This biography details not only Rowling's life and her love of literature but the story behind the creation of a modern classic.
Pamela D. Pollack
Pamela Pollack and Meg Belviso have co-authored several children's books, including Who Is J.K. Rowling? and Who Was Steve Jobs?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a great book. My daughter (3rd grade) used this for school, she had to read (listen to) a biography. It was entertaining and informative. I even enjoyed it. This is the first of this series that we've ''read", but I look forward to trying some more.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was so good I feel like...I want to read it again!
