I was in China on the day Harry Potter 6 was released. CNN Asia (in every hotel in which I stayed) showed Harry Potter parties throughout the world, including at a bookstore in China.
The next day I visited a five story Chinese book store on the main downtown shopping street of Beijing. Our Chinese guide knew just what I wanted when I asked if it would be possible to purchase any of the Harry Potter books in Chinese. A large Harry Potter display was easy to find with Books 1 - 5 in Chinese and the British edition of HP6
(Chinese translation to come).
The international enthusiasm for HP lives!
