Harry Potter’s 20th Anniversary

sees fans across the world celebrate   ‘The Boy Who Lived’ ….

Fairhills Library celebrates with a display of the Harry Potter Books & other Harry Potter memorabilia…. Check it Out!

The Philosophers Stone is 20 years old!

It’s the 20th anniversary of J.K Rowling’s Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone was first published on June 26th 1997 and since then it has sold more than 450 million copies worldwide in an impressive 79 languages.

Can you believe that it’s already been 20 years since we saw Harry meet best friends Ron and Hermione, take on a troll in the girl’s toilets and face Voldemort for the very first time?

The one and only J.K Rowling herself also decided to add to the celebrations by divulging more information about Potter’s family tree, much to fans delight.

J.K’s official Potter fan site Pottermore also recently announced a Wizarding World Book Club, allowing fans to revisit their favourite books and discuss them online.

These popular books led to the magical movie franchise which propelled Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint into the spotlight, as well as a highly acclaimed sold-out theatre production and several theme parks dotted around the globe.
