Harry Potter has just turned 25 in print! That is, millions of readers are celebrating 25 years of magic and fantasy in this wizarding world.

As a matter of fact, it was on the 26th of June, 1997 when the first edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone was released. The idea had been born one day a few years before while J.K. Rowling was sitting on a delayed train from Manchester to London. This one would only be the first of the seven novels which have made up her outstanding saga.
