Dear friends, colleagues and other amazing muggle peeps:
“Nineteen years have passed…” well, for Harry Potter and the gang at least. In real life, fewer years have gone by, but we should feel fortunate to even get another Harry Potter story out of Ms. Rowling, right? Because didn’t she once say,“this is it”?
If you haven’t heard all the hype, let me fill you in. There is a new Harry Potter play script in book format coming out in 2016! Uh, what? Book! Wait — play? Yes, play (as in theater production). The new book, “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,” is coming the end of July, and so is the theatrical production in London’s West End. If you don’t have all the 411 about the play, hustle over to harrypottertheplay.com and find out all about it.
We already received a suggestion for purchase of the book a couple of weeks ago from a very impatient muggle bookworm. The book is advertised as being available on July 31st, barring any unforeseen devastating circumstances created by Voldemort. (Um, are we still not supposed to say his name? Like, he is dead, right?)
We’re waiting with bated breath, counting down the days and hours each week to see how many wizards, half-bloods and muggles are ready to consume “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.”
While you’re waiting, make sure to check out all the Harry Potter materials our library has to offer.
