Joanne Kathleen Rowling was born on the 31st of July 1965 in Chipping Sodbury, in a family of middle class. Her father was an engineer and her mother was a writer. At the age of six J.K. Rowling wrote her first book, a story of a sick rabbit. The family moved to Bristol. In that period she played with her sister and with the children of the next door, the Potter. Their favourite play was to weared as wizards. Her best friend called Sean Harris. He looked like Ron Weasley. She was shy and freckled, she weared a pair of glasses and so she remembered her novel’s character of Hermione. She dreamed up Harry Potter and his wizard accademy in 1990 while stranded in the English countryside on a broken-down train. She wrote “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” through the most trying times in her life: the death of her mother an impulsive marriage that ended in divorce, shortly after the birth of her daughter, and more than a year of living day to day on public assistance until she completed the novel in 1994.

Rowling wrote 5 books and the last 3 were “Harry Potter and the Prizoner of Azkaban”, “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” and “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”.They were published in the years 2000-2001.
