Harry Potter's Birthday Gift to Charity

Filed under: Harry Potter

harrypotterwizards.jpg

Today is Harry Potter's birthday and J.K. Rowling has announced something special for you fans to celebrate the special day.

After months of anticipation and secrecy, The Tale of Beedle the Bard, a collection of wizardly fairy tales penned by Rowling and referenced in the final installment of the Harry Potter series, will be made available for sale to the public and can be pre-ordered today on Amazon.

The book is being published by The Children's High Level Group , a charity that works to improve the lives of vulnerable children across Europe, and all net proceeds will be donated to the charity.

J.K. Rowling has enough money. It's great to see such generosity!

Moms and dads, the book will arrive just in time for the holidays.

It's scheduled to hit the stores or your doorstep on December 4th.

      I ordered the thing two hours ago, and three of my friends did as well one of them just because it's pretty (she's never read the books), and since they are only making 100,000 of the collectors editions ($100) I wonder how long till it sells out.

      Perez, you are a good for nothing piece of s*it. Your website is nothing but copied material that you did not gather for yourself. You do nothing but steal info from everyone else and post it on this pathetic website. You make it look like you have gotten the material yourself. Your a thief and a skank!

      Re: Jaded – #18

      I bought two collectors editions also…
      one to keep and one to resell…
      only 100,000 copies of the collectors edition…considering last Harry Potter book sold over 6 million copies in the first 24 hrs—this collectors edition will have a very nice resale value.. :)

      Its good to see when someone does something for Charity with their millions. Rather than buy another gold-toilet seat for their latest castle in the country.

      Re: DLR – I saw Harry Potter (aka Daniel Radcliffe) naked in Peter Shaffer's "Equus" and he does have a bit of hair on the chest and the furriest' treasure trail leading "down there"! I'm happy to report that his cock is pretty average, but for the testes lovers, he does have a big pair of 'twins' which swayed all about as he threw himself about on the stage! Very nice!….and unlike those terrible fake pics online, he is circumcised! I was in the second row centre with my binoculars ready under my programme! he he he
      I've never been able to look at 'Harry Potter' the same since!
