The book covers for the adult and children’s versions of Deathly Hallows have been released.
The children’s edition (right) shows an older-looking trio, and the adult version (left) shows a locket, presumably Slytherin’s locket, which is believed to be a horcrux.
The American vesion, as always, will be different. David Saylor, Scholastic’s art director says, “The structures around Harry show evident destruction and in the shadows behind him, we see outlines of other people. For the first time, the cover is a wraparound. On the back cover spidery hands are outstretched toward Harry. Only when the book is opened does one see a powerful image of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, his glowing red eyes peering out from his hood.”

The March edition of Ask Draco is now available on the ”World Wide Web” (there aren’t spiders, I asked). You can now send letters for April’s edition, so GET WRITING! It is very boring being on the run. Hiding from aurors, living in awful places, and cleaning up after myself! The thought of it makes me cringe. And on top of all that, the only letters I get are from my father ordering me to break him out of Azkaban! If I this doesn’t end soon, I will go insane. Do you want me to go insane? No. Stop laughing!
All right, all right, I’ll give you one more chance. The first 10 people who write me a letter get to send me some Honeydukes sweets! Now get to work.
