When I was younger I really had spent no time outdoors. One day my sister brought a book from school she had bought it at the book fair. I always liked reading but no very much. When I started reading Harry Potter I became inspired by the magical halls of Hogwarts, I was entranced with the Harry, Hermoine, and Ron's friendship, and I was captured by the word cleverly spun together by Dumboldore. I fell in love with the books, and I still love them very much. I saw in the books that in order to face anything you need not just courage, you need love, friends, family, and determination. I grew up with the saga, and I learned a lot from it. (And I almost died when my mother threw my books away claiming that the devil had taken hold of me.) I laughed at Ron's whit, and I cried at the end of it all. The "Potter" books introduced me to a new world. Not the magical wizarding world, but the world of books. Thank you, J.K. Rowling for an incredible expirence!!
