Harry Potter Turns 20

It's a big deal today, all over social media and the blogosphere.  Harry Potter turns 20.

I've never been a Harry Potter fan.  I made it part way through book 3, I think, and that was that.  And while I have also watched most of the movies - I think - I'd be hard pressed to tell you much about them aside from who played who in them.

That being said, I give HUGE kudos and congratulations to J. K. Rowling and her books of Potterdom.  They inspired a massive amount of children, and adults, to pick up a book and start to read.  So many kids that never wanted to read before, read that first Harry Potter tale and were hooked.  And remained hooked!

That is worth everything.  :)

Well done!
