J.K. Rowling

From her birth in the town of Yate (not, as widely reported, in the village of Chipping Sodbury) to her emergence as the best-selling children's author of all time, J.K. Rowling has led a life nearly as improbable as that of her famous character, Harry Potter. Written for young adults but appealing to readers of all ages, this book tells the fascinating story of the woman behind the most beloved novels of our time. School Library Journal says, "At last, a biography that contains some real information about the popular author." Cover price: $31.20. You save 15% off the regular price.
