I was just browsing my Facebook news feed and I saw the Harry Potter 15th Anniversary Edition covers! These covers will appear on the paperback edition of the series this September. The covers are simply amazing! The covers were made by Kazu Kibuishi, illustrator of the graphic novel series Amulet. He made those covers to commemorate the15th Anniversary of the US publication of the first book, The Sorcerer's Stone.

The first cover was already released last February and they have been releasing the next covers one-by-one. Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone's cover depicts Harry and Hagrid at Diagon Alley. Well, not much of a spoiler, since its the first book. The original Scholastic cover showed Harry riding his broom.

The second one, though, can give the readers of only the first book a bit of a spoiler. The original Scholastic cover of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets shows Harry finding the message on the wall written in blood. If you think this is cool, check out the third cover.

Well, that's it for the covers. They haven't released the remaining two book covers yet, but I have a feeling it would be more awesome than these ones. Especially the Deathly Hallows cover.
Oh yeah, Scholastic has also announced that it will release the first boxed set of the complete Hogwarts Library on November!!! Woohoo! Finally! I've waited long enough for that. :D
May dementors not cross your path,
