French honor for JK Rowling

JK Rowling, the author of the super successful Harry Potter series which has become the most successful movie series of all time has been awarded the prestigious Legion of Honour by the President of France Mr. Nicholas Sarkozy

Rowling shot to fame 12 years ago in 1997 when she first released the publication of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and since then there have been a total 7 series of the Harry Potter mania. She was knighted by the French President at a ceremony held at the Elysee Palace.

Her story is really an amazing one and the tremendous success that Harry Potter has received worldwide is something never witnessed before. I really wish her the best of luck for her future endeavors and may she continue to be as successful as she has been in the past. A deserved award!
