J.K. Rowling

Harry Potter and the Last Horcrux (I drew this picture.)

A two year old girl named Joanne Rowling sits on a bench, plays with her play-dough, and listens to her baby sister being born. She would have said, "She's born," but her mouth was full of play-dough. Well, the play-dough eating girl had a prophecy to fulfill. She would become one of the most well known writers in the world.

Joanne Rowling was born in Chipping Sodbury. She was the oldest of two sisters. She also had two dogs, Misty and Thumper, and two guinea pigs that were eaten by a fox. Her first school was St. Michael's. On her first day of school, the teachers sat her in the "non-smart" row, but she was quickly moved to the smart row. She also said she loved to read. She went to Exter University for four years, then graduated.

Soon after that, Joanne and her baby moved to London. Then she published her first book, Harry Potter and the Philosipher's Stone in 1997. But some publishers didn't like girl authors, so she had to change her name to J.K. Rowling. Anyway, after she published her first book, she published five other books in the series and they were translated into 28 different languages. Some people in the books are named or characterized after people Rowling knew. (Like Professor Snape; he was thought of from a teacher J.K. had.) In the second book, the car that resuced Harry was the car that Rowling's friend took her out in. In the third book, people on the night bus were named after her grandpas.

There will be a seventh book to the series. All I know is that Harry might die! So, it is "TO BE CONTINUED," and the world will be waiting.
