To celebrate the 15^th Anniversary of the US release of the world-famous Harry Potter series, the books have gotten fresh new covers.

Revealed by published Scholastic, these beautiful new illustrations are the work of author and illustrator Kazu Kibuishi who’s best known for his bestselling Amulet graphic novels.

“When illustrating the covers, I tried to think of classic perennial paperback editions of famous novels and how those illustrations tend to feel. In a way, the project became a tribute to both Harry Potter and the literary classics.”
