The images were done by Jim Kay, who has won a Kate Greenaway Medal for his illustrations in Patrick Ness’ fantasy novel “A Monster Calls.”
“To be given the opportunity to design the characters, the clothing, the architecture and landscapes to possibly the most expansive fantasy world in children’s literature, well let’s just say I’m extremely excited about it,” Kay said in a release. “The story is everything, and so I want to bring what I can to really show the depth of Rowling’s stories, to their best.”
