Answer 1

Answer:

The book was first published by Bloomsbury Children's Books in June 1997, under the name J.K. Rowling. The “K” stands for Kathleen, her paternal grandmother's name. It was added at her publisher's request, who thought a book by an obviously female author might not appeal to the target audience of young boys.
