Potter in the ParksAfter you’ve read the books and seen the films, you can get even more Harry Potter in his theme parks, studio tours, and film prop exhibitions. William Silvester traces the development of these venues and provides entertaining walk-throughs of each.Though merely a Muggle, Silvester expertly blends Potter lore with behind-the-scenes accounts of the design, construction, and politics involved in the creation of the Wizarding Worlds, from Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley to Japan. You’ll learn both how they were built and what each offers in the way of rides, shows, shops, and restaurants.In addition to the Wizarding Worlds, Silvester also covers the lesser-known Potter destinations, from Movie World in Australia to the British Museum’s History of Magic exhibition-and even a peek at the possibility of a new Wizarding World in Universal’s forthcoming park in Beijing, China.Next to your spell book, Wizarding Worlds is essential equipment for wizards of any age. Don’t leave for Hogwarts without it.
