'Harry Potter' Author J.K. Rowling Revealed She is Working on a New Children's Book

Harry Potter fans have once again something to celebrate as British author J.K. Rowling revealed that she's working on another children's book.

According to eoline.com, J.K Rowling has been busy writing new novels under a pseudonym Robert Galbraith which is a crime novel series. Aside from writing the script for a movie adaptation of her "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," Rowling was also busy for the past few months due to her upcoming theatrical play of "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" which will be a sequel and the eighth story to her worldwide best seller "Harry Potter" series. Not to mention her active interaction with her fans in Twitter. Whew!

Despite of her current projects, Rowling have shared during an interview with BBC Radio 2 that she's working on a new children's book. She said "I have so many ideas. I have written part of a children's book that I really love, so there will be another children's book. And I have ideas for other adult books...I sometimes worry I'll die before I've written them all out. That's my mid-life crisis."

The news of her soon- to- be children's book has made the fans all hyped up but Rowling, as secretive as ever, hasn't revealed yet what would be the topic of the children's book.

In a report by usatoday.com, J.K. Rowling's publisher in the U.S., Scholastic Inc., is equally excited as her fans for her new projects. The publisher said "Scholastic is thrilled that J.K. Rowling is working on another children's book and we have no doubt that she will, once again, inspire even more young readers with her brilliant storytelling."

Rowling has been publishing her works under a different name since 2012 for her book "Casual Vacancy." After her three books under the name if Galbraith, Rowling assured her fans that her name will be seen on her books sooner that we thought. "I will definitely write more novels as J. K. Rowling. Novels in the plural, I have so many ideas in my head," she said.
