Tanya Grotter (Russian: Таня Гроттер) is the protagonist of a Russian fantasy novel series written by Dmitri Yemets. The first book of the series, Tanya Grotter and the Magical Double Bass, was first published on January 1, 2002. Tanya (short for Tatiana) Grotter is an orphan with intentional resemblances to J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter character. Despite its reputation in Russia and the many books it has spawned, the series is not available in English translation because the first book was judged a breach of copyright.
