一谈到Harper Collins Publishers，第一个蹦到眼前的画面大概是英语词典 DICTIONARY [ˈdɪkʃənri]。

但是我们今天要说的是比英语词典要有趣得多的一套系列丛书！首先，让我们认识一下MinaLima，一个电影道具设计团队或者说是工作室，是由两个设计师Miraphora Mina和Eduardo Lima创办。
2010年，MinaLima工作室成立，负责哈利波特系列电影中所有的平面元素设计，譬如活点地图、《预言家日报》《唱唱反调》、蜂蜜公爵与韦斯莱魔法把戏坊中上百个产品包装盒。
MinaLima非常擅长渲染故事氛围，在它的图书作品中表现得淋漓尽致。MinaLima的创始人之一米拉波拉·米娜在采访时说：“装订是非常重要的，这也是我们的一次尝试，我们希望我们的书能把人带入一个丰富多姿的世界，而不仅仅是翻开就只有平面的插图。”
Minalima决心将经典童话打造成“梦幻魔法书”。接下来，让我们一起看看由MinaLima设计，Harper Collins出版的适合全年龄段的七本书！
