What? Dramatic license, I found the solution to your problem, eh?
But why is the type bigger in the American copy? When I first found an American copy of the Philosopher's (not a balmy Sorcerer or anything!) in the US I was a bit taken back at how childish it all looked. No wondder the Christian fundamentalists declared it heresy.

One, I think more children in the US read it than the ones in UK. Just my thought. Two, I'd prefer the name Philosopher's Stone than Sorcerer's. Why? Because it is the actual name used in alchemy.

There are more children in the US to read! And I think more children here read it because in primary school most classes read it for story time. But in some states you weren't allowed to read it at school because of churches.

Either way, what does it matter the sizing of the letters. Some of us have bad eyes, so it is more or less good for people with bad eyes. Can we at least stop making fun of countries?

I think it'd be cool to have pictures, i'm a bad reader pictures might help, plus give me more angle for my own! As for the print being bigger, you can get small print in the UK with the locket on the front? So technically our big print is the normal copy and then there's the small print and the american is the big print. Is that right?

I dun need pictures. I pictured the entire thing in my head as I read and that's why everything seemed so strong. The deaths. The time Ron ran out. At times I wanted to just stop reading because I could see what was about to happen and started panicking because I didn't want it to happen and have to see it.
But that's besides the point.

No I can imagine it all, but I can't keep on the words, my totally dyslexic and the words take a while to become a word I know and then the words all need to become sentences so millions of pictures form in my mind while all that's happening, but actually having pictures in the book would give my brain a rest from all the words!

The thought interests me. I would want to have that for about.... 30 minutes just to feel what it is like and see what happens and everything. After that, I'd be annoyed and learn braille. I hope I spelt that right.

How would braille help? You still couldn't understand the letters? I always thought chinese might help with the letter order but then there's still the words... It's kinda cool because I can remember parts word of word.
1. Pictures give you an idea of what something looks like in the following chapter
2. How would I go about fixing this into a screenplay
3. Imma pm arianna
There's some pretty decent computer software for writing scripts, allows the writer to focus on the narrative rather than what the shorthand for voice over is.
