I picked this book up from my local library and I'm still not sure what the title of it is. The front cover says 'JK Rowling The Princess Of Dreams', the binding says 'JK Rowling The Princess Of Magic' and inside the book says 'The Wizard Behind Harry Potter'.Anyway, it was a pretty good, easy read ...
An okay book but you can learn more about J.K Rowling from her site , then from this book.
Some interesting things I didn't know, that I know now :)
