Harry Potter is important to me because it has created friendships, inspired me, and made me grow closer to my family. When I was little, my mom would read Harry Potter out loud to me in the bedroom my sister and I shared. We bonded over this series. It was my childhood. My best friend loves the series as well. We have laughed and cried reading, talking about, and watching the Harry Potter books and movies. Finally, the books and movies have inspired me. They have made me realize how lucky I am to have friends and family that love me so much. It has made me more down to earth. It's inspired me to eat healthier and exercise and love life. I love Harry Potter
