Response/rating (1-4): **** I love all of the Harry Potter books, but this one is my favorite. It is fun and I love reading about the cool things that exist in the wizarding world. The book is lighter than the later books in the series and a fun read. Totally impossible to put it down.

One question you would ask before read aloud: What would you do if you found out you were actually a wizard?
