J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter Books

Pros: An Excellent Box Set of One of the Best Children Stories of All-Time.
Cons: None.

Throughout the history of literature, one of the greatest stories to appear was always a children story. From the Grimm Brother’s tales to the work of Roald Dahl in such books like “Charlie & The Chocolate Factory” and “James & The Giant...

Pros: Mystery, mythology, all four books in one, alot...
Cons: Each book has a little quirk here and there..

Anyone who knows what books are knows about kid wizard Harry Potter and his huge following. Granted, the whole thing has become more of a fad than a reading experience (you didn't see Frodo's Journal or Old Forest Sing-Alongs come with Lord of the...

Pros: 4 magical books that will take you places like never before!
Cons: Yeah right!

Ready for the next book by the (female) English author, J.K. Rowling in the Harry Potter series? Or perhaps you were thinking about buying a whole set for your son or daughter as a present (or something like that =P ) and have no knowledge (or very ...

Pros: Wild imagination; the previous books were only appetizers; the greatest thing to hit children's literature
Cons: None

I have already purchased and read to my daughter these three books of the series: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. She enjoys them all. Once a kid gets into this...

Pros: Intricate plotting, great characters, suspenseful, and just scary enough.
Cons: Really hard to put down...

I’ll be twenty-two years old in December and I am happy to admit that if the Hagrid showed up and told me that I had been accepted into Hogwarts, I would happily get on that train. The books are incredibly well plotted. The complexity of the overall...

Pros: J.K. Rowling captures your imagination and motivates our children to read!
Cons: Parental discretion might be wise for really young children

Have you ever asked your self “What is all the fuss about Harry Potter”? I too was somewhat annoyed with all the commercialization that transpired upon the 5th book’s debut. I watch as the Today show tried to set up a little game for Pott ...

Pros: Great Storytelling
Cons: Probably too difficult for readers younger than 8 or 9

I can't tell you the last time I read a book written for children. I am a grown-up with jobs and a mortgage and 'sponsibilities. Finally, after Harry Potter books had topped the New York Times bestseller books for several months in a row, I decided to...

Pros: Excellent, easy reading for any age
Cons: Similar story line per book

As an ex-librarian it's a shame that it has taken me so long to finally read the Potter series. But given the movie was out, and knowing how far too many books are ravaged by their movie counterparts I knew it was time to take a peek into the...

Pros: Wonderful, imaginative, spectacular
Cons: none

The Harry Potter novels were written with kids in mind, but as I (and my book group) discovered, they are wonderful novels for anyone. Harry Potter gets sent off to witch school, and the stories tell of all the troubles he has there, and the friends...

Pros: Funny interesting
Cons: Over too soon

I was going to the movies with my cousin one day, and she hands me a book called Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Knowing my interest in fantasy books she thought I would like it.

The book lie unopened on my dresser for about three...

Pros: Bewitchingly entertaining...you can't put the books down!
Cons: I have found NONE so far.

I do not think I have been so giddy to read a book in years! (All this coming from someone who is not an avid reader.)

I bought the book at the Dayton airport around four in the afternoon for a trip I had to St. Louis Missouri. I finished...

Pros: Excellent and descriptive child's tale
Cons: People expect to much

After reading the Harry Potter Trilogy I was frustrated because I felt that the books were way to over-hyped for how well they were written. Don't get me wrong, the story is great for children, and I realize that it is only written for children, but...

Pros: People of all ages will enjoy this book.
Cons: May be a little too long for young children to read.

After reading all three Harry Potter books by JK Roling, I would like to highly recommend them to people of all ages. When I first heard of them from a friend, I was a little bit hesitant about reading a childrens book at my age, but from the minute I...

Pros: great story, really creative, 3 thumbs up
Cons: pretty childesh writing, maybe unenjoyable for adults

HARRY POTTER:

Reading the 4 books of wizardry took me away with unnumbered detailed paragraphs and long chapters of adventures. Its plot is character based but so creative and interesting there is no arguing an amazing author wrote them....

Pros: The set makes reading the story in order easier .
Cons: Does not include the comic relief charity books.

When I say that this is a parents must buy , I do not mean it to be for the children. I really believe that this is an item that should be purchased for other adult readers.

This series is just like reading one long book.

I have...
