London: British author JK Rowling's new children's book The Christmas Pig, her first children's novel since Harry Potter, was published Tuesday. 

The book, illustrated by Jim Field, is the story of a little boy called Jack, and his beloved toy Dur Pig, and the toy Christmas Pig that replaces Dur Pig when he's lost on Christmas Eve.

Together, Jack and the Christmas Pig embark on a magical journey to seek something lost, and to save the best friend Jack has ever known.
