For the past two weeks now I have been reading Harry Potter and have really enjoyed it, if you read this series you will begin to acknowledge the reputation it has deserved. As our main character Harry struggles with the Dursleys a new era of the book is reviled, Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. We begin to get the sense that this is going to be the new setting and also the importance of the institution.
Although Harry is a legend in the Wizarding world he has no knowledge of this because of the lies his Aunt and Uncle have told him. As he and Hagrid walk through Diagon Alley many people start to recognize him by his scar, the scar was left by Voldemort after Harry survived. Its hard to relate to the situation with Harry for me because I am not adopted as well as I have been raised in a different type of world. For example the magical pathway between platforms 9 and 10 would not ever be existing in our world. Could this type of place exist; unfortunately not at the moment but it would be extraordinary
You need to post your reading details. Also, as I noted on your last post, Harry Potter 1 is not difficult enough for 9th grade. Please find a more appropriate book and return to this one during a break or outside the regular outside reading time.
