The text and book you now can read inside is a parody. If you believed, for some suspicious reason for which we refuse to bear any responsibility, that this is a continuation or even a new edition of Harry Potter, you will be disappointed.
    This parody aims to entertain readers with amusing ideas which the real author might have had, but which did not quite fit into her concept of serious literature, or could not be presented to her innocent school-age readers if she wanted to reach retirement age without being threatened by outraged parents. The intention was to satirise; to imagine the logical consequences of what must have happened should everything follow the original plan and scenario.
    The parody is not real and does not extend or complete the original book (not that Harry Potter needs that, but here and there it could do with a little slimming treatment by Dr. Hemingway, couldn’t it?) so if you are waiting for a real Harry Potter and you are not interested in anything else, put this book back on the shelf, cross yourselves three time Hogwarts-like, put on a pair of Lennon glasses and go buy a Potter T-shirt so that your wait for the next part passes quickly. We will of course be happier if you don’t.
    Why?
    Mainly because Pouter is much more cheerful.
    And also because you may revel in the fact that only world-famous works are parodied, which means you have good taste.
    Successful works are parodied, but this doesn’t really matter.
    A parody of an unsuccessful though artistically valuable work would have no interest to anyone.
    The question is: “Who will be interested in this parody?”
    We hope that only people with a sense of humour...
    Hey, do you have any idea why forewords are needed every time a book is published?
    Because there are people who buy a cracker and if CRACKER is not written on it in big letters, they sue the manufacturer claiming that the steak doesn’t have enough meat.
    One more thing - we are also getting ready for the parody of Larry Potter by N. K. Stouffer. The only problem is that when abridged it amounts to nothing more than the length of a flyer.
