I'm 12. This book is AWESOME! It made ME want to be a wizard! I mean, I was totally engrossed. I wish that I could play Quidditch and fly on brooms. I sometimes practice some of the spells on my little brother! I couldn't put it down! I got all of the merchandise, too. I have Harry Potter sheets, toys, everything!!! If I was compelled to buy all of those things, than wowzers! You'll probably like it, too! I'm a very tough book credic, and I rarely think that most books are worth reading. You should also check out the book The View from Saturday by E.L. Konigsburg. It's really exciting, too! Once again, Harry Potter is part of my life! That's how good the book is!

I'm Pamela Duprey. I'm 10 years old. This book is stupid. It promotes the use of wands and abnormal words. If you were to describe Harry Potter to somebody, they'd obviously think that you're cukoo. "He's an orphan wizard boy that attends Hogwarts. He's grand at Quittitch and he's good at flying on brooms. He and his friends battle evil with magic." Now, I don't know what might be going through YOU'RE mind, but it really sounds stupid. I think that the only way Harry Potter would become a good book was if they eliminated Harry, his friends, Hogwarts, Harry's family, and everything dealing with magic. Then this book would be upgraded from a large waste of paper to a book dealing with the dirt cycle. I'd rather be watching grass grow than reading Harry Potter.
Oh yes, and in one of the posts it said it was literary filth. I couldn't agree more.

I moved to America from germany in the year of 2000. I could not speak a word of english and I hated books. But that ended soon, once I started reading Harry Potter I bot good grades in my english classes and I stoped watching a lot of TV.
Stranger than fiction, blending tragedy and farce, How to Create the Perfect Wife is an engrossing tale of the radicalism, and deep contradictions, at the heart of the Enlightenment.
