Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has paid £30,000 at a charity auction for a family tree drawn by author JK Rowling.
Radcliffe, 16, who plays the schoolboy wizard on screen, bought a handwritten history of the family of Sirius Black, his character's godfather.
Rowling donated the document to the sale by Book Aid International, which provides books for schools in Africa.
The actor also successfully bid for handwritten works by writers Iain Banks and Tom Stoppard, totalling £4,680.
Radcliffe's mother Marcia Gresham bid on his behalf at the central London auction.
She said: "This should put paid to anyone who says that Daniel doesn't like reading.
"Daniel hasn't stopped since he read the first Harry Potter book and he loves Iain Banks and Tom Stoppard."
