At home I have a lot of books and most of them I like but this article will be about only one author of my favorite book…OK I'm starting at the moment...

I want to introduce you my favorite writer Diana Wynne Jones. She was a British writer, principally of fantasy novels for children and adults.
Born:
16 August 1934 
London, England, UK 
Died:
           26 March 2011 (aged 76) 
Bristol, England, UK
 
After finishing school in Thaxted, in 1953 she entered the College of St. Anne at Oxford, where she studied English. Jones attended lectures. After completing studies in 1956, she married John Barrow, a specialist in medieval literature. They briefly lived in London, then returned to Oxford, and finally in 1976 moved to Bristol. They had three sons: Richard, Michael and Colin.
 

Diana Wynne Jones is known for her novel Howl's Moving Castle. And this novel is one of my favorite books.
 



I read this book first time nearly one year ago. Generally, in the beginning, I watched the anime. But when I found out that there is a book, I begged my Mum to buy it for me. And when she bought it, I immediately started to read it, “swallowing” chapter by chapter.
  


  

In 2004 an animated film was released, directed by Hayao Miyazaki and produced by Studio Ghibli. The film broke box office records in Japan, and was nominated for an Academy
Award for Best Animated Feature.
