The idea for the book Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone came to J. K. Rowling in 1990. It took her seven years to finish writing it. During those seven years she had a number of jobs, including (包括) one job as an English teacher in Portugal.
Rowling sent the book to four publishers (出版商) before one of them bought it. She was very happy to sell her book because it was her dream to be a writer. Before she sold her book, Rowling was living in a small flat with her daughter and was very poor. She didn’t have enough money to pay for heat in the winter.
Harry Potter became a favorite with children and adults in England and then around the world. It was put into more than thirty-five languages. After her second and third books were published, the three Harry Potter books filled the top three places on many newspapers’ lists of the most popular books. Without question, Rowling’s life completely changed and she became one of the most famous women writers in the world.
