I have just been to this website

http://www.harrypotterguide.co.uk/

and looked at book covers from around the word some of them were quite amusing the iclandic one even depicted harry potter rarther fat

some of them were realy good but a few were quite obscure

take a look ... you have to go into books and then to book covers from around the world

Oooh, I really love the Ukraine covers but it isn't in that website you posted. I'm not sure where I got them (because it was a long time ago) but I did save the images. I'm going to attache all 5 Ukraine book covers...

They're very well-detailed illustrations! You gotta love them! They're as great as the US book covers, even better =)



BOOK 1, Sorcerer's Stone

If you zoom in on all these pictures, you'll notice they're really VERY detailed. =)

For example:

If you zoom in on the 3rd Ukraine book cover, you'll see two hooded person in the right which maybe dementors.

Also, if you zoom in on the 5th, you'll see Snape, Neville, Hermione, Ron... =)

I've wanted to start getting copies from other countries too, but don't know where to start. Did you just get yours while on holiday? taz

twigNig

Well I have the first 4 books in Turkish and they have the USA book covers.The 5th book I have is the British one.

Wow, it's really interesting to see how different countries stylise people in their drawings - e.g. like anime has a distinctive technique.

I really like the covers from the Netherlands and Denmark, and I was surprised at the French ones - they look really simple as if someone really young drew them or they were done on a basic design program!

Does anyone have a link for the adult covers? I've seen the UK ones but not any others.

Cover 5 is my favorite. I like it better than the one here anyway. I wonder what some from Aus. and Japan, and China would look like. If anybody has them, could you post them so I can see??

Elessea
