UPDATE: DH Excerpt Included in Prince Charles Birthday Book

It was reported earlier that J.K. Rowling would contribute to a book to be published for Prince Charles's 60th birthday. The Bookseller is now reporting that Jo's contribution will be an extract from Deathly Hallows with new illustrations from Quentin Blake.

Writing from Jacqueline Wilson and Philip Pullman, new pieces from Philip Ardagh and Anthony Horowitz, and further illustrations from Axel Scheffler, Posy Simmonds and Emily Gravett will also be featured in the book.

"Royalties from the book are being donated to The Prince’s Foundation for Children and the Arts, which provides schoolchildren with opportunities to visit theatres, orchestras, museums and galleries."
