First two paragraphs:
"JK Rowling has joined the growing revolt against publishers' plans to
brand children's books with "appropriate" age bands. Many other famous
names have already come out strongly against the idea, but the Harry
Potter author's vast clout in the children's market makes this the
most potent challenge yet to the scheme.
"Rowling signed the online petition of the No to Age Banding campaign
yesterday. Her name appears alongside a host of other well-known
children's writers, including Anthony Horowitz, Terry Pratchett and
Alan Garner. And three previous Children's Laureates - Quentin Blake,
Anne Fine and Jacqueline Wilson have also signed up - as has the
current incumbent Michael Rosen."
