J. K. Rowling finished book of fairy tales
by Nina Gotzmannova
The author and pen mother of wizard Harry Potter said her last goodbye to the world full of magic and mystery. Her new book of fairy tales is her first book after finishing the Harry Potter series and although it is not about Harry's world, the book has something in common with him. "The Tales of Beedle the Bard", as is the title, was previously mentioned in the last Harry Potter book. In the book "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" the headmaster of Hogwarts Albus Dumbledore gave one of the characters, Hermione Granger, book with the same name as the new Rowling book has. But for the readers and the fans would be difficult to get to this book as it exist only in Harry Potter's world. The book is unfortunately hand written and made only in seven copies. Six of them are gifts to Rowling friends and only one will go for sale. It will be sold via auction at Sotheby's on December 13 and the starting price is $ 62,000. Not only this book is the only copy for the public, but it's also a luxury piece for the library. The book is bound in morocco leather, mounted with silver and semiprecious stones. The price may be therefore even higher. Except this highly unreachable book for average Joe or Jane is J. K. Rowling working on another book. According to her words it is a book for children and it's half written. Her next plans for the future are to publish an encyclopedia of the wizarding world.
