I don't think he is Hagrid in that photo, I think he is Bob Dylan.

I'm guessing either HoosierDaddy or Monitor.

Are you sure that isn't Blob Dylan ?

Hey! I even read the book! One of 'em, at least. And HD has the entire collection, FYI!

I suspect this may be from a Comic Strip show, but memory fails me as to which one.

The last two needed an axe taken to them ! But I guess the publisher wasn't willing to upset the goose that was laying golden eggs.

That's what I've been telling people all the time. The first book is actually very good, lively and rapid, with a great rhythm, almost poem-ish at times. But then I read, I think it was a fifth book, it was? Anyway, that one's completely devoid of all the playfulness and wit of the first book and is written in an as straightforward manner as can be. But that's when the horrible movies came out. Since neither of the directors managed to capture the atmosphere of the first book and translate it to a film, and instead did an unimaginative CG fest, my theory is that she had to adapt to the deadpan stiffness of the movies and write in such a manner.
Granted, Prisoner of Azkaban was okay but not even Cuaron could do much with what was already firmly established on screen.

My daughter loved the Percy Jackson books.

I can also recommend the Dark Materials trilogy, Golden Compass etc, she loved those as well.

I had a girlfriend that had all the Twilight books and DVD's and wanted me to go with her to a premier of... one of those. But it could be worse, she could've been a fan of A Song of Ice and Fire.
