Last week saw Rowling launch “Harry Potter at Home,” an online hub featuring entertainment based around her books on the boy wizard.
Upon its launch, she said parents, teachers and carers "working to keep children amused" might be in need of "a bit of magic."
The website features quizzes, puzzles and crafting videos, claiming to cast "a Banishing Charm on boredom."
