The Eighth Story. Nineteen Years Later.
Based on an original new story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne, and John Tiffany, a new play by Jack Thorne, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Parts I & II (Special Rehearsal Edition): The Official Script Book of the Original West End Production is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official Harry Potter story to be presented on stage. The play will receive its world premiere in London’s West End on July 30, 2016.
It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.
While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.

Harry Potter Contest Winners!!!!
After a lot of thought, and several delays we have finally chosen a winner.
Congratulations, Sara!
Sara made an amazing entry about her favorite characters, Luna Lovegood and Hedwig.
So, as we promised, we will be doing a extra bio, or info post about them!
Sara's entry!
I love Luna Lovegood and Hedwig. I choose Luna because she teaches Harry and her other peers at Hogwarts that it's ok to be different and unique in your own special way. She always says they wittist, but awesomest things, and brings out the best in her peers. I also choose Hedwig because she has always been there for Harry, a friend when he needed one and always delivered the important gifts and letters.

Do you think that Ron and Hermione make a good couple or do you think Hermione and Harry should have become a couple instead of Ron and Hermione? Personally, I prefer Ron and Hermione as a couple more than Hermione and Harry.
I had to write a speech on something I am love, and guess what I chose? Speech below.
Harry Potter!!!!!!!
I remember when I was in first grade, and I sat on the floor with my Mom as she read me the first few pages of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. I remember her stopping just as a mysterious figure appeared at the end of Privet Drive. I asked her who it was, but she told me I had to wait until tomorrow night. The next morning, I asked her if she had the second book.
If you know me, you know that any time Harry Potter is mentioned, I pretty much fly to the moon. When we did the contrasts and contradictions signpost, and the example was Hermione hates school, and goes to lunch with Bellatrix Lestrange, Keely McCosh pretty much summed up my feelings, by pointing out that she thought I was in pain. J.K. Rowling’s books have drawn me in from the very start, Keeping me on my toes, while reading, she brought out deep feelings of sadness, anger, laughter or wonderful joy.
I have many memories connected to Harry Potter, and this is one of my funniest. I was in about second grade, and in the middle of the series. I did something stupid, or bad, and my punishment? No Harry Potter for a week. I almost died. Harry Potter has become as much a part of me as my arms, legs, eyes, and mouth, always there no matter what.
Over 450 million copies of Harry Potter have been sold. Which means over 450 million people have read Harry Potter. Over 450 million people’s lives have been affected by Harry Potter. Harry Potter is so wonderfully written, so inspiring, that there are follow up books. The tales of Beedle and Bard, Fantastic Beasts, and where to find them, and Quidditch through the ages. There are also many fanfictions. (although not all of them good.) J.K Rowling’s writing, draws you in, makes you want to keep reading, and expands your imagination. If someone liked it enough to make a movie out of it, then it is a good book.(In my opinion) They even have a Harry Potter world! Harry Potter are books, and movies, that keep you on the edge of your seat, with feelings racing around inside of you like dogs who have seen a squirrel, or cats who have had too much catnip. A ton of people cared enough about Harry Potter, to make a movie. Double that probably tried out ot be in Harry Potter. I have a book on how the movies were made, and all of the interviews with people in the cast, have said it was a wonderful experience, and they have loved every minute of it.
“ Happiness can be found in the darkest of times, if only one remembers to turn on the light”-Albus Dumbledore To me that means even if times are rough, and things look bad, you can always find the light, and the goodness, and it is not hard to do! You have to believe there is light, for there to be light. “ Words are our most inexhaustible source of magic capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it”-Albus Dumbledore It is true. Words are our most powerful weapon, and we sometimes use them too rashly. We can use them to convince people to do the right thing, or the wrong thing. We can make someone feel better, or we can hurt them, and sometimes we don’t realize that. You don’t know what happens when everyone goes home. Just Kidding, doesn’t fix everything. We need to think before we speak, because words are definitely the most powerful, magical, weapons, capable of changing the world for better, or for worse.
Even though Harry Potter is fiction, to me it means something much more, as well. Harry’s fight against Voldemort is like our fight against some of the terrible things that happen. People bullied, people hungry, kids who have no shoes, nowhere to go to school, and people killed because of differences. It’s not right, and even though those things are scary, and sometimes you want to live in fantasy land, with Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, and the occasional unicorn, we have to take heart, and join the battle to help, and in the end, if you work together, you can always defeat the enemy, like Harry defeats Voldemort in the end. Remember that, and join the fight against evil with heroes like Harry, and find what you have, that’s worth fighting for.
I plan on sharing Harry Potter with my kids, and grandkids. I know Harry Potter will stick with me to my deathbed, and I know in my heart that I will always always always remember the boy who lived.
