On the train, you see landscape moving by through a window. In another, an owl, a cat and the fog come to life on Platform 9 3/4, where a Hogwarts-bound train awaits. In one animation, you see multiple letters fly in through the fireplace with news of Harry's acceptance to Hogwarts wizardry school. Instead, the new editions offer full-color illustrations and animation from Pottermore artists. That game incorporated clips from the 'Harry Potter' movies. Until recently, the Pottermore site also had a game that took readers through the books chapter by chapter, with riddles and other discoveries along the way. Rowling has also penned supplemental books, including 'The Tales of Beedle the Bard,' a children's book that was referenced in the last 'Harry Potter' book.

She has traced Harry's roots to a 12th-century wizard and has written about the origins of an invisibility cloak that appears throughout the series. Rowling has been regularly posting new essays on Pottermore. While the illustrations are new and exclusive to the enhanced editions, Rowling's annotations aren't necessarily so.

It's akin to Hollywood releasing the same movies in new formats and with bonus materials. It also gives Rowling and her publishers an opportunity to resell these best-selling books, the last of which came out eight years ago. The makeover offers readers young and old a new way to engage with the story.

For other devices, including Amazon's Kindle, standard electronic editions are available through Rowling's Pottermore site. The editions, released Thursday, are exclusive to Apple's iBooks Store and require an Apple Inc. Rowling also goes deeper into some of the characters and story lines with a handful of pop-up annotations. More than half of the illustrations are animated or interactive, with such touches as a golden snitch from Quidditch matches flying away as you tap it on the screen. The seven books are getting a makeover with more than 200 new illustrations in enhanced e-books made for Apple devices. NEW YORK - You don't need to be a wizard to see the 'Harry Potter' books come to life.
