67 times through here, and I've been reading it a 68th time with my boys. I was stunned how easy a read it is compared to the old days when I'd savor the book for at least 4-6 hours. I've read each one of the books in the series over 45 times with The Silver Chair being my least favorite, and The Last Battle being my most, but also the second one in the series that at age 6 got me to cry. (The first being Aslan's death in Wardrobe).

I usually go through about 10-12 pages of Harry Potter with my boys at bedtime. We're almost on book 3. (Next week) I sat down with them one night with Wardrobe and was on page 35 by the time it was time to put them to bed. I read it a second night for them and stopped at about page 65. My 5 year old loved it, but my 3 year old was bored. He just sat around because Daddy was reading, and he didn't understand the story, but enjoyed spending Daddy time with his brother. Though he DID comment on Faun Tumnus. (Spelling??... I'm running on 12 hours sleep over the last 8 days. Sorry)
