Sarah Pratt is a wiz with butter. Just ask her next subject, Harry Potter.
A sculpture of Potter will be made using butter. It will be shown next month at the Iowa State Fair. Next to it will be a sculpture of a dairy cow.
The fair and Pratt wanted to make a sculpture of something popular. They thought Harry Potter would be good because of the new Harry Potter book and movie.

Pratt says her dairy Potter will look like the character on the book covers. Visitors will be able to see Harry's glasses and scar. Pratt said she is still deciding on a pose.
The dairy cow is a state fair tradition. It's normally shown with another sculpture. Last year, Pratt made a butter Superman.
This year's Iowa State Fair runs from August 9 to 19.
The seventh and final Harry Potter book came out last week.
莎拉．帕特是個奶油天才，從她創作的新主題「哈利波特」就可知道。她將用奶油做出哈利的雕像，於下個月愛荷華州的展覽中展出，與一頭乳酪雕刻的乳牛並列。
該展覽和帕特都想展出流行物品的雕刻，他們覺得《哈利波特》最棒，因為該系列的新書和電影又出爐了。
帕特說她的乳酪哈利將長得很像小說封面上的模樣，參觀者也會看到他的眼鏡和傷疤。帕特目前還在構思哈利要擺的姿勢。
乳牛雕像是這個展覽的傳統，通常會搭配另外一個雕像，去年帕特製作的是奶油「超人」。
今年愛荷華州的展覽時間是八月九日至十九日。
第七集、也是最後一集的《哈利波特》已於上星期出版。

A preliminary finding into last month’s Air India plane crash has suggested the aircraft’s fuel control switches were turned off, starving the engines of fuel and causing a loss of engine thrust shortly after takeoff. The report, issued by India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau on Saturday last week, also found that one pilot was heard on the cockpit voice recorder (CVR) asking the other why he cut off the fuel in the flight’s final moment. The other pilot replied he had not done so. The Air India flight — a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner — crashed on June 12 and killed
