J. K. Rowling earned worldwide fame for her elaborate and beloved series of books about a young boy wizard named Harry Potter. Now, 15 years after the initial release of the first book, Rowling surprised everyone when she revealed that it wasn’t Harry she missed the most, but Dumbledore!
“Of all the other characters in the Harry Potter series, he’s the one I miss the most,” she stated in a video for Scholastic Books. “I feel like I wrote Dumbledore from the back of my head. Sometimes he said things and told Harry things that I only knew I knew or believed until … I saw that I had written them down in the voice of Dumbledore.”
Rowling went on to lament that the death of Dumbledore was the hardest for her stating that “[Dumbledore] was the person who I’d have come back physically and sit and talk to me.” When asked who she would love to introduce to Dumbledore, were alive and real, Rowling replied that she would pick herself because “of all the other characters in the HARRY POTTER series, he’s the one I miss the most.”
Aww! Who do you miss the most from the HARRY POTTER series?
