On Friday, the final of eight movies of the Harry Potter series was released. This series, centered around a classic tale of good versus evil, will forever be remembered by many, even those who did not read the books or see the movies, who were around when "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was released. Since then, thousands around the country have lined up in bookstores for the midnight releases of the novels. The same is done for the releases of new movies. Many "teen fiction" these days involve silly nonsense (i.e. The Twilight Series). The Harry Potter series is not only very well- written; it relays good morals and important lessons on friendship, love, life, death, and selflessness.
My Dad and I read the whole series together and now he is reading it a second time with Matthew, my younger brother. This is the best endorsement I could think of for a series of books - my Dad is all about important lessons.
