When my son asked for his own set of Harry Potter books, Beqi Send a noteboard - 07/04/2010 10:26:37 PM
I got them for him. He read the first book in two evenings. And the second one the next two. He is 9 now. Will be 10 in a few months. I think you need to let kids explore their limits. He said he may wait to read the next one.

I'll give you that.... Jeordam - 07/04/2010 06:11:27 PM 1214 Views
It does seem logical that the series gets more teenager-oriented as Harry grows older. Legolas - 07/04/2010 06:47:57 PM 1186 Views
Yeah, I believe she's explicitly said she did that on purpose beetnemesis - 10/04/2010 08:24:47 PM 1121 Views

I agree with many of your points. Legolas - 07/04/2010 12:44:31 AM 1422 Views
I have to dispute the concept of going "too far." Ghavrel - 07/04/2010 06:32:47 AM 1179 Views
Hm, I don't know. Legolas - 07/04/2010 11:08:12 AM 1224 Views
This is a lot like the argument I'm having with Joel on the CMB concerning original sin. Ghavrel - 08/04/2010 07:21:39 AM 1138 Views
Where is this debate? I'd like to read it. Jeordam - 08/04/2010 05:18:38 PM 1813 Views
I should have put "debate" in quotes. It's about four sentences long. Ghavrel - 08/04/2010 10:32:43 PM 1138 Views

Sheriff Lobo wasn't a werewolf, either, and Bear wasn't a bear. Tom - 09/04/2010 12:47:48 AM 1146 Views
Exactly - it's not as obvious if you're a kid, then it seems clever and it's fun to decode. Legolas - 09/04/2010 01:04:11 AM 1272 Views
