Which Harry Potter book did J.K. Rowling dedicate to her daughter Jessica?

J.K. Rowling dedicated Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire to her daughter Jessica.

The fourth Harry Potter novel includes a dedication to “Jessica, who loves dragons,” linking the personal note to one of the book’s major magical creatures and to the interests associated with Rowling’s young daughter. Goblet of Fire was published in 2000 and marked a substantial expansion in the series’ scale and danger.

The novel introduces the Triwizard Tournament, an international magical competition held at Hogwarts. Harry is unexpectedly selected as a fourth champion, despite the tournament traditionally having three competitors. The book also ends with the return of Voldemort, making it an important turning point in the overall story.

Dedications can be confused because Rowling included family members and friends in several book dedications. Jessica is Rowling’s first child, born in 1993, while the dedication is specifically attached to the fourth novel. The dedication is not the book’s title or an in-story character reference.
