In the News: J.K. Rowling book sells for $4M

Do you remember hearing that J. K. Rowling had written The Tales of Beedle the Bard (the book that Hermione uses in the last HP book) and had seven copies made? Six were given away and the seventh was auctioned today. It sold for $4M according to CNN. Proceeds are going to The Children’s Voice.

I guess I won’t be getting a copy for our book collection. I kinda doubt I’ll be able to get it through inter-library loan, either.
