It's the 20th Anniversary of Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling #harrypotter20


Today marks the 20th Anniversary of J.K. Rowling's release of Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone. We're feeling really sentimental about this. What an amazing 20 years it's been! Twenty years after it made it's first debut, this book is still touching lives through out the world. It's so cool to think that those who grew up reading these books, now read them with their kids. Honestly, we still love re-reading these books too. 

The thing I love about today's anniversary, is that twenty years ago today, J.K. Rowling introduced us to a character who reminded us that all we needed was courage, love and friendship, and we could do anything. She minded us that magic still exists. That standing for what you believe in, and being who you are, makes you truly powerful. She has given us characters that we can all see ourselves in. Through Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling has reminded us all that sometimes the stories we escape into, end up staying with us long after we've finished reading it. J.K. has also, through her characters, and this book series, inspired new readers and new writers to reach for their dreams, regardless of what their circumstances are. 

Thank you J.K. for sharing your magic of story telling with us. For taking us to Hogwarts and introducing us to unforgettable characters who live on long after their books are returned to our bookshelves.
