# Kate McCann's book 'Madeleine'

Kate McCann's book “Madeleine: Our daughter's disappearance and the continuing search for her” was published on 12th May 2011, the date of Madeleine's 8th birthday.

A revised and updated version was released on 10th May 2012.

“ 'The decision to publish this book has been very difficult, and taken with heavy hearts … My reason for writing it is simple: to give an account of the truth … Writing this memoir has entailed recording some very personal, intimate and emotional aspects of our lives. Sharing these with strangers does not come easily to me, but if I hadn't done so I would not have felt the book gave as full a picture as it is possible for me to give. As with every action we have taken over the last five years, it ultimately boils down to whether what we are doing could help us to find Madeleine. When the answer to that question is yes, or even possibly, our family can cope with anything … Nothing is more important to us than finding our little girl.' Kate McCann ”

Co-Author/Ghost-writer of the book is Harry-Potter inventor and billionaire J. K. Rowling: “…In May 2007, Rowling pledged a donation reported as over £250,000 or over $495,000 to a reward fund started by the tabloid News of the World for the safe return of a young British girl, Madeleine McCann, who disappeared in Portugal. Rowling, along with Nelson Mandela, Al Gore, and Alan Greenspan, wrote an introduction to a collection of Gordon Brown's speeches, the proceeds of which are donated to the Jennifer Brown Research Laboratory.”

Extracts of the book were serialised in The Sun on 7th May 2011. It is not know how much The Sun paid for the Serialisation Rights.
