“I was super excited. I have been looking forward to this day for weeks,” said Hannah Nelson, 12, one of the lucky few who got to pose a question.

“I really idolize her, and to be able to meet her was a great experience,” Nelson said.

Despite widespread praise from teachers and parents for boosting interest in reading in children, the Harry Potter books have regularly been banned by schools and libraries in parts of the United States and Britain because of their focus on wizardry.

But Rowling said she was in good company with other acclaimed writers. “I take my inclusion on the banned book list as a massive compliment.”

She will be happy to hear that her queer propaganda is banned in a new place today.

This is all part of the homosexual agenda, as they try to normalize their perversion.

I would have never bought her books for my children for their focus on witchcraft, but now my children have been instructed to not read her books at the library or anywhere else.

The idiot just had the whole potter series moved to the sexual content section.

Parents can now ban a once semi-innocent series based on this alone. This will go right next to heather has two momies or daddys roomate.

The wizardry BS is no longer required. Reading the series is no longer required. Just quote the authors own words.
