You have the option to purchase an audio guide (at an additional fee to your ticket purchase) that you can listen to as you walk through the Harry Potter: The Exhibition to learn more behind-the-scene details about the Wizarding World.
Most of the children's and young adult fiction and literature are in the Mezzanine, in the general call number section PZ, with some larger picture- and story-books on level 1 in oversize (+) and double oversize (++). The collection includes books in Asian languages, stories from Asia in English, and dual-language books which have the original language or script and an English translation. (Those books can be helpful in beginning language learning.)
It's in various languages, the boards are only in English, so if reading English is hard for you, the audio guide will enhance and lengthen your visit. I was alone, the benefit of the guide for me was I got a bit more out of my visit.
The books were written for the readers to grow with them (as anyone who had to queue outside Waterstones to get their sparkling new copy knows) and so the gradual increase in complexity of language works very nicely for language learners who are gradually developing their skills.

There will always be some form of English-language support, be it subtitles on videos, text below props, or an audio guide. The latter is useful for minor explanations that will be spoken in Japanese, such as in the poster room.

The Weasley family is spotlighted here, including Ron, who is continually embarrassed and anguished over being poor and having to buy used textbooks and other lower-quality chattels. This time, he is humiliated and demoralized when Mrs. Weasley buys him hideous, ancient dress robes for formal school occasions; Mrs. Weasley's well-meaning, but misguided, attempt to provide for her youngest son's material requirements goes awry when she utterly fails to comprehend Ron's emotional needs, and that teenagers, even wizard ones, desperately desire to fit in with their peers, not be different from them. She has unintentionally made Ron a more tempting target to his detractors. Ron becomes more upset when he sees that Mrs. Weasley selected presentable dress robes for Harry because he can afford them. This contrast between Ron's relative poverty and Harry's inherited wealth has appeared several times in this book, and is likely to continue through this and subsequent books, and could strain their friendship. Though Ron is sometimes jealous over Harry's affluence, he has yet to realize that Harry lacks and desperately desires what Ron takes for granted: a loving, supportive, and stable family. And while Ron will always have an opportunity to improve his lot in life if he so chooses, Harry can never hope to regain his lost parents.
As Harry has been destined since birth as the "Chosen One," his ongoing conflict with Voldemort has skewed his overall thinking somewhat, and, in his mind, the battle has become his burden alone to carry, his mission to accomplish by himself. As a result, Harry feels compelled to rush in and be the hero whenever he feels others are threatened, even those able to fight their own battles; this will probably make him dangerously predictable to his enemies later on. While Harry feels he must face most obstacles alone, he is only able to compete in the Tournament because others such as Hermione, Moody, Dobby, Cedric, and Hagrid have guided him, and we expect will continue to do so. While Harry is gradually learning to rely on others, he is still generally reluctant to accept outside help, especially when it is offered by suspicious characters like Ludo Bagman, who Harry now suspects is using him for some ulterior motive.
