by J.K. Rowling (j Rowling)
This is the latest book to feature the marvelous illustrations of British artist Jim Kay in the Harry Potter world of publications. Arranged in diary format, each day of the year is accompanied by a quote from one of the Harry Potter books, perhaps occurring on that day or close to it. Birthdays of main characters are marked as well as anniversaries of important dates, such as the Tri-Wizard Tournament. What makes this book so remarkable though are the hundreds of illustrations by Jim Kay; most of the illustrations have already been featured in the large illustrated versions of the first four Harry Potter books, but some of the illustrations are new. I highly recommend this book for any fan of Harry Potter or the art of this amazing illustrator.
(If you enjoy this, you may also
wish to try the Harry Potter novels by J.K. Rowling, as illustrated by
Jim Kay, or A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness.)
