But now reading the original words and seeing those beautiful illustrations, it took my breath away. What a great book to read over and over again!

And I was delighted in discovering that Dumbledore is adorably nuts, I had not realised that before! This is a great beginning to a magnificent series. I was missing it without knowing it.
