Harry Potter has never been star of a Quidditch team, scoring points while riding a broom far above the ground. He knows no spells, has never helped to hatch a dragon, and has never worn a cloak of invisibility. All he knows is a miserable life with the Dursleys, his horrible aunt and uncle, and their abominable son Dudley - a great big swollen spoiled bully. Harry's room is a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs, and he hasn't had a birthday party in eleven years. But all that is about to change when a mysterious letter arrives announcing that Harry has been chosen to attend Hogwarts, an elite school for the training of wizards and witches... (jacket flap)

I recall around the year 2000 is when I first started hearing the hype about this boy who is a wizard book and not thinking to much of it. That was until one day my mother brought the book home and said she was (not in character for her) to read me a little bit each night. This lasted maybe 2 chapter before you gave up and read the rest of the book on her own. So I was quite exited when a year later my 4th grade teacher started reading the book to the class aloud in our down time over the course of a month or so.

Was great to finally get to understand what all this hubbub was about. Well to this day I am still kind of wondering how this book on its own launched such a media power house. Like do not get me wrong …
