"What does Harry Potter mean to you?" As an individual, Harry Potter represents things I don't have. Friends who stand up for him, believe in him, who are willing to put their lives on the line for him. He had family that loved him and stood by him, and wanted nothing more than his happiness. To me, Harry already had everything, with or without magic. The story itself was an escape. As I read the books, I became so immersed in the story that I was able to leave behind a life I've come to dislike. I was part of an extraordinary world and I never wanted to leave. With each new entry, I became a little more saddened as each chapter brought me closer and closer to the end. At this point, as I reread the series over and over again, the world of Harry Potter will continue to thrive. That's what Harry Potter means to me.
