			Fact File
	Potter in China
		In China Harry is known as Ha-li Bo-te
		5,000 English-language first editions of OOTP sold out
		There's a whole fake adventure, Harry Potter and Leopard-Walk-Up-To-Dragon

So people are posting their own versions now.

There are quite a few illegal translations of JK Rowling's newest wizard tales online already.

Confusing

If they're not official the translations can be confusing and not how JK meant the book to be.

But the boss of Britain's Publishers Association, said people are usually posting pirated copies free for other fans, not trying to make money.

JK's publishers recently had some unofficial German and Czech versions pulled off the net.
