Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Book 5) (Library Binding)
As Harry enters his fifth year at wizard school, it seems the bonds of friendship and trust have never been more sorely tested. Lord Voldemort’s rise has opened a rift in the wizarding world between those who believe the truth about his return, and those who prefer to believe it’s all madness and lies just more trouble from Harry Potter. Unabridged.From The Publisher:In the richest installment yet of J. K. Rowling’s seven-part story, Harry Potter confronts the unreliability of the very government of the magical world, and the impotence of the authorities at Hogwarts. Despite this (or perhaps because of it) Harry finds depth and strength in his friends, beyond what even he knew; boundless loyalty and unbearable sacrifice.About The Author:Like that of her own character, Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling’s life has the luster of a fairy tale. Divorced, living on public assistance in a tiny Edinburgh flat with her infant daughter, Rowling wrote Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone at a table in a cafe during her daughter’s naps - and it was Harry Potter that rescued her. First, the Scottish Arts Council gave her a grant to finish the book. After its sale to Bloomsbury (UK) and Scholastic Books, the accolades began to pile up. Harry Potter won The British Book Awards Children’s Book of the Year, and the Smarties Prize, and rave reviews on both sides of the Atlantic. Book rights have been sold to England, France, Germany, Italy, Holland, Greece, Finland, Denmark, Spain and Sweden.A graduate of Exeter University, a teacher, and then an unemployed single parent, Rowling wrote Harry Potter when I was very low, and I had to achieve something. Without the challenge, I would have gone stark raving mad. But Rowling has always written; her first book was called Rabbit. I was about six, and I haven’t stopped scribbling since. For Rowling, the change in her fortunes has been slightly bewildering. But her daughter has no doubt about her mother’s new career: when asked what mommies do, she replies without hesitation, Mommies write!
