Welcome to Marvelous Middle Grade Monday (MMGM), a weekly event hosted by author Shannon Messenger. For a list of other MMGM posts, click HERE.
Okay, I know everyone knows everything about Harry Potter, but HP is my all time favorite fantasy series. And I am a HUGE fan of the movies. In fact, every year I hold a Harry Potter Fest for my kids. Each night for several nights in a row we watch all the HP movies. We load up with all our favorite goodies: popcorn, licorice, nachos & soda! We collect our HP stuff and wear our Gryffindor shirts (except for Carissa who always wears Slytherin) and we gorge ourselves on everything HP!I cried during the last movie, The Deathly Hallows Part II because I was heartbroken to say good-bye. But Harry, Hermoine & Ron live on not only in my beloved DVD and book collections, but also in the e-book world.
If you haven't heard, Harry Potter is now available for e-readers! Everyone stand up and scream now! (Okay, sit down.) You can download them at J.K. Rowling's new site POTTERMORE.
Cool beans! I think Harry Potter will always hold a special place in society. It will stay relevant for a new generation.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the challenge!

I think Captain Picard would still win in a fight to the death with Harry Potter. Who needs a wand when you have a starship?
ReplyDeleteI miss Capt. Picard and the whole Next Generation gang. Never missed an episode. I used to tape them onto VHS. Nice to have a fellow Trekky on board. Welcome!
DeleteYay, we both Harry Pottered for H. I was a sobbing mess during most of Deathly Hallows Part 2 as well. I didn't want the movies to be over. My kids and I are going to do an HP movie marathon this summer. Can't wait.
ReplyDeleteLOVE HP!! Can't get enough of it either. I love your tradition and am thinking of starting something like that in my family now...
