I can't believe there's been no mention of this on any other site, besides Amazon, that I've seen in the past couple days. Maybe for once, I'm up to speed with international happenings but I really just happened to have come upon this by accident. Seems Amazon has purchased JK Rowling's handwritten and illustrated book,
The Tales of Beedle the Bard. Sotheby's auctioned it off at a final price of...
1,950,000.Whew!
Of course, the generous literary genius is donating these funds to The Children's Voice Campaign.
I'm real curious to know what Amazon will do with this priceless work? I can't wait to see the illustrations and read the five tales.

You know I heard she's writing an adult mystery..Are you guys gonna read it and how do you predict it will fare against Harry Potter?
