Product Information

Coming this October, fans can soon look forward to Harry Potter: A Magical Year, The Illustrations of Jim Kay: a celebration of the award-winning artist’s rich and imaginative interpretations of the wizarding world paired with memorable excerpts from the Harry Potter books.

Harry Potter in glorious colour – a gorgeous hardback box set of the Illustrated Editions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher' s Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Bloomsbury is exploring exciting new directions in illustration for the last two stories in the series. I have been struggling with mental health illness for some time, and it would be wrong to try and continue when I can no longer give the fans and the series the full commitment and energy it deserves.Bloomsbury will now explore exciting new directions in illustration to complete publishing all seven Illustrated editions. For now, fans can take a closer look at Jim Kay’s craftmanship, with A Magical Year celebrating pieces from his previous offerings alongside never-seen-before sketches. She then continued Harry’s story as a grown-up in a stage play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, which she wrote with playwright Jack Thorne and director John Tiffany.

Harry Potter’s fifth year at Hogwarts is a must-have visual feast featuring magical locations, iconic story moments and favourite characters, including Tonks, Luna Lovegood and more.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them went on to inspire a new series of films featuring Magizoologist Newt Scamander.

When Bloomsbury Children’s Books published the first Illustrated Edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in 2015, readers were instantly mesmerised by Kay’s magical and rich evocation of the Boy Who Lived. Jim Kay has so far illustrated four of the seven Harry Potter books in the series, with his most recent work in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire released back in 2019. Rowling is the author of the seven Harry Potter books, which have sold over 600 million copies, been translated into over 80 languages, and made into eight blockbuster films.We feel so grateful and privileged to have enjoyed Jim’s vision of the wizarding world, and recognise the staggering amount of dedication and work it represents.

The first fully illustrated edition of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is an extraordinary creative achievement by two extraordinary talents. This pack contains the first four books of the Harry Potter series (books 5-7 will be released in the future), along with the companion titles, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. She also supports a number of causes through her charitable trust Volant and is the founder of the children’s charity Lumos. With over 150 illustrations, Jim Kay's unique vision delivers breathtaking scenes and unforgettable characters – including fan favourites Cedric Diggory, Fleur Delacour and Viktor Krum illustrated by Jim Kay for the first time. After the idea for Harry Potter came to her on a delayed train journey in 1990, she plotted out and started writing the series of seven books and the first, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, was published in the UK in 1997.Rowling is the author of the enduringly popular Harry Potter series, as well as several stand-alone novels and a bestselling crime fiction series.
