Joanne Rowling is world famous for writing the best-selling book series in history. She's more than a creative, imaginative author. She is one of the most inspiring people out there.
Joanne Rowling was born July 31st 1965 in the small town of Yate, England. She loved writing as a child, starting at age four when she wrote her first story about a rabbit named Rabbit who got sick and was cared for by his friends a bee named Miss Bee. She would read the tales to her younger sister. Joanne went on writing until she got her Bachelor of Arts degree. She became trilingual in English, German and French and began working for Amnesty International in London in 1986.
Her sensational stories began on a train ride from Manchester to London with her boyfriend in 1990. She gained the idea of a young boy on a train to attend a school of wizardry, after that all the characters came flooding. When Joanne reached her platform in London she immediately began writing.
When her first book Harry Potter and The Philosophers Stone, was published, she and her young daughter were living on welfare. With awards being won for her magic filled books, within a year she earned a multi-millionaire status. J.K Rowling went on to write 7 incredible books which filled hearts with joy, and a started a movie series which became a world-wide phenomenon.
I think Joanne is an inspiring person because she defied the odds so many are trying to overcome, to escape poverty and achieve something amazing. Something that entertains people for longer than any 2 hour movie. She develops minds and starts creativity in every person had turns her pages. Joanne's work takes you to another world, a world of incredible sacrifice, love and friendship.
