A Chinese girl looks at a copy of 'Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix' at a bookstore in Beijing June 21, 2003. The book went on sale at 8.00am in Beijing, exactly the same time as it was released elsewhere in the world. Though only English language copies of the book, which sells for 178 Yuan (US$21.50), are available in China, the store sold more than 50 copies in the first three hours of sales Saturday. Chinese language copies of the book are to be released in stores in October. [Reuters]
