An initiative launched by J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World, in collaboration with varying publishing partners, the ‘Harry Potter at Home’ project was created in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to provide a free online resource for Harry Potter fans, particularly for those who were staying at home due to lockdowns and social distancing measures. Worldwide, only three families were chosen to take part and these items were given as gifts to members of the families who participated in making the Harry Potter at Home readings in 2020. This particular book and letter were given to a member of the only U.S. family selected. Truly a rare collectible originating due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
