Bloomsbury Publishing has today relaunched its Harry Potter website to support the new children’s editions which will be published on Monday 1st September. You can see the site at http://harrypotter.bloomsbury.com/uk/. According to a press release we received this morning:

The design, functionality and priorities of the site have been completely revamped to increase its child appeal. The new Harry Potter site uses the Jonny Duddle artwork from the new children’s editions and includes pages of information on the bestselling series as well as exciting new content from Magical Downloads to a Harry Potter Quote Generator. The site now features a dedicated area for teachers which hosts discussion guides and reward certificates for the first time in the UK.

Bloomsbury has ongoing plans to grow and develop the website by adding new games and content over the coming months, and ensure it is the living, breathing home of Harry Potter books from Bloomsbury.

The website also includes a page for the new Illustrated Editions that we reported on back in 2012. Philosopher’s Stone will be released October 2015 with full illustrations by Jim Kay.
