J.K. Rowling by Grace Boren





J.K. Rowling was born on July 31, 1965 in Yate, United Kingdom.  I chose to write about J.K. Rowling because she is my most favorite author. I really love J.K. Rowling.
            Do you like J.K. Rowling? Have you read all seven Harry Potter books?  J.K. is short for Joanne Kathleen. J.K. Rowling went to the University of Exeter. The University of Exeter is on the northern coast of England.
            J.K. Rowling has won many awards. Some of them are: Author of the Year, the British Books Award, Order of the British Empire and the Prince of Asturlas Awards.
            She has many interests that started when she was young. She wrote lots of books as a kid. She likes French, the Classics, teaching and reading. She had an idea about the Harry Potter story and since she loves to write, she decided to make the books.
            Her books have been sold all around the world.  Some countries where you can find her stories are England, France, Germany, Italy, Greece, Finland, Denmark, Spain, Sweden and of course the U.S.
            The story of Harry Potter began with The Sorcerer’s Stone, which is funny. Book 2 is The Chamber of Secrets, I haven’t finished reading it yet.  The Prisoner of Azkaban is the third book in the series.  Book 4 is called The Goblet of Fire, which is followed by Book 5 The Order of the Phoenix. The Half-Blood Prince is Book 6. The final book is bum, bum, bummmm…. The Deathly Hallows. Some people say it is scary, but I don’t think so.
            If I were able to ask J.K. Rowling questions, I would start with “How did you come up with the idea for Harry Potter?” Then I would ask her when she started writing the first book. Finally, I would ask her if she would be writing anymore Harry Potter books or even some about other characters from the Harry Potter books.
            I have learned many things about J.K. Rowling. One thing I found out is that she wrote a lot of books as a kid. She also loves to read, just like I do. Finally I learned what her full name is, Joanne Kathleen Rowling.
