The Harry Potter Series as about a boy named Harry, whose parents were killed by an evil wizard, Lord Voldemort.  Harry's friends, Ron and Hermione, are the best Harry could wish for and are with him through and through.  Harry's headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, helps Harry on his quest to defeat Voldemort.  This series is full of love, action, and adventure.  This Series includes Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Chamber of Secrets, Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire, Order of the Phoenix, Half-Blood Prince, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.  And you can check it out at your local Mary Bray Media Center!

I liked how J. K. Rowling based her characters and events on myths things.  Such as her idea behind Hermione; The name Hermione comes from Hermes, the Greek god of communication.  That fits Harry's talkative friend.  There are more than 50 myths hidden in the Harry Potter series.  I can't wait to read some other books by J. K. Rowling!
