Only Australia, Canada and the UK have this cover. All other countries have different ones, not just America but places like France, Spain, Norway etc...

I was actually surprised to see that Canada has the same cover as the UK. Usually the US shares everything with Canada...

I like the UK cover but Harrys facial expression looks weird to me, maybe im weird. I was suprised too that canada is getting the UK version, usually those things are synominous with eachother in N. America

urm, anyone else think that Harry looks, uh, odd? Anyhow. . . Orange isn't the best color choice, in my opinion. . .

We're indepentant from England, but we have a Parliament Government and much of our political proceedure and laws come from Britain. We even still use British spelling. The artwork and all the spelling in our HP books will be the same as the UK's books. |
