Harry Potter Dedication

Each of the Potter books was inscribed with a dedication that had a significance for J K Rowling ...

Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone
Dedication: For Jessica who loves stories, Anne, who loved them too, and for Di, who heard this one first.
Meaning: Jessica is Rowling’s first daughter, Anne was her mother, who died in 1990, and Dianne is her younger sister: the first ­person to read the first Harry Potter manuscript.

Harry Potter And The Chamber of Secrets
Dedication: For Sean P.F. Harris, getaway driver and foulweather friend.
Meaning: Rowling met Harris at 11, when they were pupils at Wyedean school. He was the first of her friends to learn to drive and would take her — in her words ­ 'zooming off into the darkness' in his car. He was also the first person to whom she confided her dream of becoming a writer — and who believed that she would succeed.

Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban

Meaning: The two women were Rowling's flatmates when she lived in Portugal and Swing was their favourite club.

Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire
Dedication: To Peter Rowling, in memory of Mr ­Ridley and to Susan Sladden who helped Harry out of his cupboard.
Meaning: Peter Rowling is JK’s father and Ronald Ridley was an old family friend who gave his name to Harry ­Potter's best friend Ron Weasley. Susan ­Sladden is believed to have looked after Rowling's daughter Jessica, while she was writing the first ­Potter book.

Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix
Dedication: To Neil, Jessica and David, who make my world magical.
Meaning: They are Dr Neil Murray, Rowling's husband, her daughter Jessica, and David, her first child with Murray.

Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince

Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows
Dedication: The dedication of this book is split seven ways: to Neil, to Jessica, to David, to Kenzie, to Di, to Anne, and to you, if you have stuck with Harry until the very end.
Meaning: Very simply, this is ­dedicated to Rowling’s husband, children, mother, sister and the people who have made her the most successful author on earth: her readers.

Ahli / Tukang Urut di Bandung

Bagi yang pernah kecelakaan, keseleo, tulang keluar dari persendian, patah tulang, dan masalah-masalah lain dengan tulang dan otot, ahli urut atau tukang urut adalah seseorang yang kita andalkan untuk pengobatan alternatif diluar kedokteran.
