So you are probably wondering why I am reviewing Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. Everyone knows Harry Potter, and more than likely, are absolutely in love with the Harry Potter World. (If you haven’t read Harry Potter or seen the movies, spoilers ahead.) I was a part of the Harry Potter generation. I’ll never forget watching the premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollow’s Part 2 after waiting several hours outside the theater. When the ending credits came up, our theater shouted, “Mischief Managed!”

It feels like yesterday. Since then I have had two children of my own, both boys. My oldest is 5 and I decided he was ready to have me read him the books.

My five-year old is at the beautiful stage where everything you could imagine is real. He is always pretending or imagining up wild stories. (One day I will tell you about his stories of Summer, the dragon.)

So I started the book, trying to watch his face and read to him at the same time. At first he just sat and listened with hardly any expression. Then enter Dumbledore. My son burst out laughing, repeating, “Dumbledore!” over and over again.
