There are few children -or parents, for that matter- today who are not familiar with J.K. Rowling's beloved hero, Harry Potter.
The central figure, Harry Potter, is an orphan student of magic at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry's own parents had been attacked by Lord Voldemort on October 31 while trying to protect their son.
Lily, Harry's mother saved him by ultimately placing him under ancient magic that protected him, but lost her life in the process.
In the series, Harry has two friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, that are there to help him through the trials and tribulations that he faces. Trials and tribulations that includes the normal awkward moments of growing up as well as fighting evil and stopping villains.
The Harry Potter series of books look at many important topics that pertain to growing up. The books include themes like friendship, love, death, prejudice, and courage in a realistic way that kids can learn from them.
And because of the continual mystery that underlies this beloved fantasy, where the reader is forever on equal footing with the main characters themselves, readers find themselves eagerly slipping into the roles of Harry, Ron, and Hermione as they unknowingly learn the struggles of coming of age.
Readers, like Harry Potter, are not able to see the thoughts of other characters until they are revealed through the unfolding of the plot to Harry.
A reluctant reader? While no movie could ever truly do a book justice, the corresponding Harry Potter films have been met the whole world over with equal delight and enthusiasm as some of the greatest box office hits. Fans of the series travel great lengths to attend various lectures and events.
Adults as well as children will find the Harry Potter series of books to be highly entertaining. The complete set of seven stories has already been released, and no additional books are forthcoming. It is quite possible that no other story or series of stories will ever achieve a comparable level of popularity.
So what are you waiting for? Hop on your broomstick and start experiencing the magic of these wonderful books today!
