Obsessed with Harry Potter [1]? Then you probably already know about the upcoming fully illustrated version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Back in January, we got to see some pictures from the book [2], and now the colorful cover is available. Bottom line: it's beautiful. Jim Kay is the illustrator, and the cover features Harry Potter on Platform 9 3/4. He's the only person you can really make out, but other people are around him, as are pigeons and a white cat. It's a lot less terrifying than that original concept art from The Creature Vault [3]. The book, which will be available on Oct. 6, will have over a hundred full-color illustrations. Scholastic is also planning on releasing illustrated versions of the rest of the books, so this is just the beginning, people.
