| | | Sorcerer's Stone 10th anniversary edition cover art (UPDATED)
A special 10th anniversary edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone will feature exclusive bonus material from J.K. Rowling. The book, being released by Scholastic on September 23, will also have new cover art by Mary GrandPré, which you can see below or in hi-res by clicking on the photo here in our gallery. Quote: |
"It's a real treat for me to get another chance to visually bring Harry back to his fans in not only a new scene, but in a new light," said American illustrator of the Harry Potter books, Mary GrandPré. "Going back to draw the first cover for the anniversary edition was an opportunity for me to show another side of Harry... a vulnerable side. Having come to know and love Harry the way we all have, after experiencing the whole series, I think we can appreciate him even more on an emotional level."
| 
You can preorder the book here on Amazon.com.
Thanks to Gazette du Sorcier for the tip! UPDATE: The Sunday People is reporting that this edition of the book will only be available in the U.S., according to Scholastic who will not be releasing it in Britain. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Ian Michael Ashby Graduated | Booger I'm so buying that book (and not telling my parents, since they think I need to stop spending money, which I hardly ever do) Quote:

When I was in DC on a flight back from Germany, I bought the hardcover.  I'm extremely neurotic and just HAD to have them all in hardback.
Question: is it still going to have the gold foily text? I sure hope they stick with that.
