Re: New harry potter
I remember when the first one came out it was awarded the The Smarties Book Prize for children's literature.
My daughter bought a copy from Waterstones in Bath when she was about ten with her own pocket money, she was in her oils with it and didn't come up for air until she finished it.
Each release saw us down at our local Asda's at midnight so she could get the next installment, happy daze and fond memories of her excitement at getting the new copy.
They aren't my cup of tea but they've brought enormous pleasure to millions of children worldwide (and their parents).
