Of all delectable islands Neverland is the snuggest. It’s not large and sprawly, you know, with boring distances between one adventure and the next, it’s nicely crammed. When you play at it by day with the table and chairs, it’s not a bit frightening, but in the two minutes before you go to sleep it is real.
Happy 47th Birthday, J.K. Rowling (b. July 31, 1965)
“We do not need magic to transform our world. We carry all the power we need inside ourselves already. We have the power to imagine better.”
