The wonderful world of wizards and muggles! When the Harry Potter books first came out, there was almost zero chance that they would be read in a school setting. My kids were in elementary school when they came out and there were many kids who were so excited about these books. Parents were very quick to pigeon hole them as being inappropriate because of occultism and witchcraft association. According to an article by Neary (2015),  https://www.npr.org/series/pop-culture-happy-hour/2013/06/11/190669029/what-kids-are-reading-in-school-and-out

it says, "... research shows that as young readers get older, they are not moving to more complex books. High-schoolers are reading books written for younger kids, and teachers aren't assigning difficult classics as much as they once did." (para 1) This would make it seem like Harry Potter books would be ideal in the classroom, however, because it is a fantasy novel, I think it will be earmarked for pleasure reading and not academic. I give Harry Potter a 20% chance of being read in an academic setting and 80% chance of being read for pleasure. The article goes on to quote Anita Silvey, a graduate teacher, "Reading leads to reading. It's when kids stop reading, or never get started in the first place, that there's no chance of ever getting them hooked on more complex books." (para 20) If nothing else, Harry Potter opens that door to reading!

The Harry Potter books are appropriate for young readers 8 -15. But these books are very good reads for adults as well. For the younger reader they are a great story about wizards, good over evil, and adventures. For the older reader, there are more convoluted meaning that the reader is able to grasp from the cleaver nuances that are hidden just under the surface. Dumbledore has a wealth of knowledge that he gives oh so subtlety. "Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light."

J.K. Rowling was born Joanne Rowling and later added the 'K' after her paternal grandmother, Kathleen, as requested by her publisher. She got the idea of Harry Potter in 1990 while she was sitting on a delayed train at King's Cross. Over the next 5 years, she mapped out all 7 books and by 1998, the first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone was published. She has won numerous awards and recognitions for the Harry Potter series. She has created a world that entices young and old to want to be a part of the wizarding community. Furthermore, she has opened up the world of reading and adventure to kids and adults who before these books came out, didn't like to read anything! That, in my opinion, is the greatest achievement of all!

This quote is about J.K. Rowling. She was a single mom and has described herself as being as poor as one could be in Britain without being homeless. I have been in this situation, as well. I was a single mom of three kids. I was never homeless, but I was getting help and things seemed very hopeless for a time. As horrible as these times were, I, too, gained a foundation on which I could rebuild my life.

Commencement Speaker for Harvard University, 2008
J.K. Rowling was honored to be chosen to be the commencement speaker for Harvard University in 2008. She delivers a speech of subtle wisdom and humor that captivates the audience. One of my favorite phrases she said in her speech was, "There is an expiry date on blaming your parents for steering you in the wrong direction; the moment you are old enough to take the wheel, responsibility lies with you. (para 12) I wish all commencement speeches could be as engaging!

This is a quote that Dumbledore said during the Hogwarts first dinner of the year in Harry Potter and the  Prisoner of Azkaban. There is a lot of speculation as to what Dumbledore meant when he said this phrase. However, I believe that he was simply reminding the students that when things get dark - both physically and figuratively - seek light and knowledge and don't panic. We also see Ron use the deluminator to find Harry and Hermoine in the Deathly Hollows.

Harry Potter may not be finished after all. Author JK Rowling, pictured by Frank McGrath, in Dublin last night, hinted there could be more of the child wizard's adventures in coming years

Maybe the story of Harry Potter isn't finished after all.

Author JK Rowling, the so-called Mrs Harry Potter, gave a glimmer of hope to the millions of fans of the phenomenally successful books last night.

Speaking to a rapturous audience in UCD, the author opened the possibility for more of the child wizard's adventures in coming years.

With the seventh book in the series, the story of Harry was presumed finished.

But last night Ms Rowling said she would "never say never" to another in the series.

However, for a series that was her life for 17 years, it would be another decade before she could ever revisit the adventures of the wizard, she said.

And judging by the reaction of 600 students, children and adult fans of the book last night, it is just as well.

"I do feel that the Harry story is now done," she said to a disappointed sigh which verged on tears.

Encyclopaedia

In addition, Ms Rowling said an encyclopaedia of the series would also be written, with funds going to charity.

The author was in Dublin to receive the James Joyce Award from UCD's literary and historical society for her services to the written word.

"Ms Rowling's work has fostered an appreciation of literature in millions of readers worldwide, and her imagination and creativity have captivated an entire generation," said a statement from the debating society.

"She receives the award for her tremendous contribution to the field of literature, both in terms of the quality of her work and the impact that it has made over the last decade."

In receiving the award Ms Rowling joined in the prestigious company of UN weapons inspector Hans Blix, actor Ralph Fiennes and author Bill Bryson.

Arriving to rapturous standing applause, Ms Rowling read an extract from 'Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows'.

It was an ideal audience for the author, who has sold some 400 million books; many of those present would have been young, avid readers when the first of the series came out.

Screamed

When the applause finally ended and the author took her seat, a screamed "I love you" from the crowd illustrated that it was a friendly bunch.

That and the numerous children dressed as wizards dotted through the crowd.

Following the reading, Ms Rowling took 10 questions from the hundreds which had been submitted in advance.

And it was here that everyone in attendance got an insight into the worldwide publishing phenomenon which has gripped children and adults in recent years.

She admitted that she had the thought of Harry dying in the early books but had changed her mind. However, when the final book was finished it was "like saying goodbye to an old boyfriend".

And who was the character she would most like to meet?

"Dumbledore -- to apologise for outing him," she replied to applause.

To finish off the evening, Ms Rowling signed books for the adoring masses, who left with hope in their hearts of more Harry Potter in the future.

This is a saying that Harry Potter had to say to his Marauder's Map to make it work and give him the ability to see where any person in Hogwarts is physically. It also displays the mischievous side of those who possesses the map.

Rowling, J.K. (1999-2007). Harry Potter Books 3 - 7. New York : Scholastic, Inc.
The final five books are Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire, Order of the Phoenix, Half-Blood Prince, and the Deathly Hallows. Each book continues the adventures of Harry, Ron, and Hermoine as they try to defeat the evil Lord Voldemort. There is a Tri-Wizard tournament where Cedric Diggory, a student at Hogwarts, is killed and Harry wins the tournament and it is confirmed that Lord Voldemort is back! Things begin to look very dire for the trio as well as all the wizarding world when those in favor of Lord Voldemort come into power and try to take over Hogwarts. Harry and his friends have to hunt down the horcruxes which are pieces of Voldemort's soul that he has hidden away in little trinkets to keep him from being utterly destroyed. The books culminate in a battle between good and evil. I won't spoil the ending if you haven't read the books, but let me just say, these are some of the best books ever written!!

This quote voices a strong theme that runs throughout the Harry Potter books. We don't need to be great or have lots of power to make a difference. This is the essence of Harry Potter and his friends - after all, they were all children! It was because of these children, who didn't have very much power or magical knowledge (except for Hermoine) that defeated Lord Voldemort.
