The Plot of Harry Potter Summed Up in One Illustration

Don’t know if you remember, but Harry Potter was a freaking long story. J. K. Rowling, god love ‘er, wrote 1,084,170 words about this young wizard’s adventures (and misadventures) at Hogwarts. That’s 4,224 pages, which we know is a lot more than any assignment Professor Snape ever doled out. That said, somehow New York-based artist Lucy Knisley managed to sum up the entire thing in a single illustration!


Here’s a preview, but you can also check out the “ginormous full size version” on Knisley’s website!
