| | | Time for Kids deems JKR Person of the Year
J.K. Rowling may have come in third place for Time magazine’s 2007 Person of the Year, but she came in first at Time for Kids magazine, which chose people who were most influential in children’s lives. Quote:
She has sold 400 million books, and made avid readers of many kids who are not easily persuaded to read for fun. She also created a character and a world that generations to come will find compelling, entertaining and simply magical.
You can see scans of the magazine article featuring J.K. Rowling as Time for Kids Person of the Year right here in our gallery.
