Two Harry Potter Related News

According to The Telegraph, Princess Beatrice says reading the Harry Potter books helped her overcome dyslexia.
“When I was younger, I was diagnosed with dyslexia which meant, for me, sitting in front of a book was really hard – until I discovered Harry Potter, and this character, this 11-year-old boy, who suddenly gets off to school for the first time, captured my imagination and suddenly reading was fun,” she said. “Reading was inspiring and I was motivated. From then on and then, I couldn’t put the books down.”

The second bit of news is Scholastic will be unveiling the new "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood" book cover at the upcoming San Diego Comic Con next weekend (July 18-21).

So far I think all the five book covers that have been released, look great (you can view the book covers below).
