Bonjour! Harry Potter Cover in French is so different.

Harry Potter, French Cover



Harry Potter, Irish Cover


Harry Potter, U.S. Cover


 I like this French  cover. Got it from the Chronicle Books Blog because Taylor Norman mentioned that she is  reading it. If my french is correct, the French title  reads, Harry Potter at Wizards School.  Maybe french kids prefer books about school  to sorcerer's stones? Let me know if you have more info on this and  if indeed it is the same story.  In our house we have the book with an Irish cover. My daughter is reading Irish and I got it from her book shelf. I have not yet learned Irish and probably never will since saying "good morning" took me about a week to memorize.
It's so interesting to see the different illustration trends as they vary from country to country.

    So different! I'm pretty attached to the US version!

    I have just added the U.S. cover now that you mention it! I agree, it has the most action. I had forgotten how humorous it is, as the later covers for the other books become darker. I do also enjoy the french one.
