Fairytale launch for Rowling book: Harry Potter author JK Rowling has read from her newly-released book of fairytales to about 200 schoolchildren.
The Tales of Beedle the Bard were first mentioned in her last book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
Rowling read from one of the seven original hand-written copies of the book at a tea party at the National Library of Scotland in Edinburgh.
Profits from the tales will be donated to the Children’s High Level Group, a charity co-founded by the author.
