Harry Potter Haggadah Outsells Chelsea Clinton On Amazon

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
The Unofficial Hogwarts Haggadah is the top-selling book in Amazon’s Judaism category and has sold almost 5,000 copies in its first two weeks. It’s the 24th-best seller of the site overall.
The book is being sold at a 15% discount on the website, where it’s also outselling Chelsea Clinton’s new book — “She Persisted: 13 American Women Who Changed the World” — in children’s books. Clinton, who is married to Marc Mezvinsky, tweeted that she hadn’t yet bought the book, but she would.
Not yet – but we will! https://t.co/qUehPqytOk

This is a moment of great uncertainty. Here’s what you can do about it.
We hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, we’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s independent Jewish news this Passover.
This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
