Thats a very odd style of drawing, but better than the stuff in roald dahl i guess, the stuff in his books are just scibbles.

Roald Dahl doesn't do those drawings, Quentin Blake does. I think they're cool, but yeah, I don't know if I like this cover more than the one I actually have. The german one is like, so detailed and everything it doesn't really leave much room for the reader to imagine anything. But hey, if they voted for it, good for them.  | |

 I dont like this cover at all. It looks weird compared to the cover I already have. I think it looks to dull and is not kreepy enough looking!
To bad I couldn't have seen the other one. Maybe it was better, or not. haha

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

I´m glad it was this one and not that other, which would have spoiled poor german kids (and some grown-ups, too) for sure. But is it just me, or does it seem that Dumbledore´s got some sports clothes on, lol?

Huh? I don't understand! The German book has a different cover? I think I'm confused.
Yeah, I'm German, but I didn't search the site enough to find percentages...
Someone answer PLEASE...please?

^ There was a voting going on in the publisher´s pages earlier with two different covers and this one won, I suppose.

That's the one I voted for - I think the second gave away the ending. There's no fun in that... I'm sure there would have been quite a few people who would've skipped around the book trying to find out who it was before reading it through.

Hmm, pretty good, but I don't think I care for the artwork much.
