Harry Potter has been such an amazing craze since his arrival on the book scene in 1998. Since then, the concept and the books have taken off, literally flying off the shelves, turning Harry Potter into the first pop craze in the book world. There is no denying that Harry Potter is bigger than so many other fads and trends that we’ve seen, from South Beach diets, to pet rocks, and more. And what’s more, unlike those trends and fads, he is here to stay. Harry Potter has changed the book game forever. He has appealed to more than just 12 and 13 year old boys, but has captured the attention of self respecting adults all over the world. The books have been translated into so many different languages, that there really isn’t a soul on the planet that could read the books if he wanted to. It is quite sure that theses books are here to stay and will be around children in future generations to read and enjoy.
There have been a number of additions to the 7 book series that include to smaller and shorter supplemental books. These books have helped to support various charitable organizations that support children in poverty across the globe. Harry Potter, as a result, has moved passed the trends, passed the fads of Sonoma Diets, hopped earrings, bell bottoms, etc… and has secured a place in history that is never to be forgotten. We look forward to what is to come from Harry Potter this 2010. Happy New Year Harry Potter!
