| Who's Harry? You haven't heard of him before? You have no clue what Hogwarts is or what this website is all about? Well you found the place. Here you can find out who Harry is and what's up with this famous boy book wizard. Harry Potter is a fictional character thought up by J.K. Rowling. He lives with his cruel uncle, aunt, and cousin since his parents died in an 'accident.' To find out more about each one of the Harry Potter books, click here. Why is Harry so popular? It's hard to explain.... it's a mixture of things. You'd have to read the book to find out for yourself. The books are well written and have a subject matter that you would have never imagined. From Harry's popularity, people are beginning to question if these books should be read by their children. The deal with the Harry books: The Harry Potter books weren't originally written for kids in the first place. They were originally written for young adults (teenagers) and adults. Though with Harry's popularity, he has caught the attention of people of ALL ages. Parents of children should think about that fact first before they begin to criticize J.K. Rowling's "scary" images and characters. Banning books from libraries is no answer to the problem that has appeared from young children reading these books. Harry Potter will probably end up becoming a classic due to its massive popularity. Everyone seems to be reading these books (well most people, except for those anti-Harry people), just like Gone With the Wind swept America once it was first published. |
