[Pippin]

I haveen't read the Harry Potter books yet, though I saw the first movie in A&E (I think it was on A&E)

I have lots of friends and relatives here who are HP fans.

I must be the only one in the country who hasn't read any of the HP books, but readiing you posts and the posts of others makes me curious enought to pick up the first book (which HP fans advise me to read first or I'll be very cunfused as to what is going on)

PS, Harry did kind of remind me of a cross between Pippin and Frodo.

Don't go by the movie...the story itself is far more interesting.

JenB - am NOT a fangirl! LOL I just...wonder about that character, s'all...*mumble mumble*

Pippin - Harry a cross between Pippin and Frodo! LOL I like that. Always did think those two were diametric opposites of each other, but Harry makes a nice model of the two integrated.

I didn't read HP until after Clare and Joseph had read them, and I really enjoyed them. We did the series as a read aloud with the kids last year, since SSQ had never read them. They enjoyed hearing them read aloud, and he did, too!
