Scholastic has updated their Harry Potter website with a few new things this Mother’s Day weekend. There are three new games including Polyjuice Pairs, Potter Swap, and Magical Matches. In addition to the already long list of fun quizzes, they’ve added a new Magnificent Mums quiz and a Nature Knowledge Quiz. Also recent are a new Harry Potter montage bookmark that you can download and print at home, as well as Book Seven wallpaper. Finally, while this is not new, if you have not been to the US Potter publishers website of late it is well worth the time to take a look again at the cover art, using their special close up explore feature. Enjoy

JKR is dead to me!!!! After what she did to the last book, I really hate her. I am 100 precent over it and even moved on to other books (Twilight series) but I will not forget what did to that 7th book. Shame on her!
