When Ms. Rowling was 26 years old she moved to Portugal to be an English teacher. Ms. Rowling has been quoted many times as saying she loved teaching English, often teaching in the afternoons and evenings, so that she could be free to work on her writing during the mornings. It was during this period that she began working on a story about a wizard.

The idea for Harry Potter came to Joanne quite suddenly. She was making a train journey from Manchester to London.During that journey she visualised Harry very clearly.she admits Harry "just strolled into my head fully formed." She had no writing materials with her. As she got off the train her mind was seething with ideas, and she was in a state of euphoria. As soon as she could, she began to write down those ideas,which subsequently became assembled into the

books. In 2006, Forbes named her the second richest female entertainer in the world, behind talk show host Oprah Winfrey.

'Much like Roald Dahl, J.K. Rowling has a gift for keeping the emotions, fears and triumphs of her characters on a human scale, even while the supernatural is popping out all over' New York Times Book Review 'The only thing wrong with the 'Harry Potter' books is that, after them, no other books come up to scratch' Mail on Sunday 'The richness and scale of Rowling's invention is exhilarating. These may be complex novels but the real proof of their quality lies in their power to draw the reader into Harry's world and make it seem entirely believable' Guardian 'This is a world so fully and richly imagined that every detail makes resonant sense: characters so complete that they feel like old friends, settings elaborately visualised in every element, a universe created with such zest and care that it feels, in all its fantastic magic, entirely real' Scotsman'.
