Took my grandson to the first film but he spent half the time hiding his face in his jacket hood because it scared him! However, as you say, the books did get kids reading (apart from my grandson, that is! The first film put him off forever!)

Curled up on the steps was a young man (late teens/early 20s) reading Harry Potter. I was so jealous, he had the latest book and I didn't! What a fabulous place to sit and read it. :)<br />Carol Warhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05077480370693925624noreply@blogger.com
