Is this the end of Harry Potter?

April 28, 2006 at 3:06 pm (Harry Potter News)

In the critics section of “The New York Times”, there was a small article which was commenting on the Harry Potter series.As I read, it said that a school in Gwinnett County, Georgia, is planning on banning the Harry Potter series from it’s libraries. Many parents are supporting this by saying that these books are supposedly “filled with evil”.One parent,by the name of Laura Mallory said, quote: “I want to protect my kids,children and others from evil,not fill their minds with it.” Some supporting readers poited out that they can tell the difference between fiction and reality…that’s a relief! Anyway, a recommendation will be given to the school board within 5 days, then the board has ten days to decide if the beloved books will stay in the libraries.My question is, have these people even bothered to pick up a book and read it,instead of just going against it?If you wish to leave a comment on this subject feel free to do so.

    That is so true my friend. I think that non of thoes parents have actually sat down and read a harry potter story. I have never read a harry potter book, but i’m a book lover, and book lovers have to stick together. I read vampire books, and if harry potter books are taken away should they be taken away too? No. They can just forget about it.
    p.s. see you in school!
