| | | Harry Potter on The Perfect Library list The Telegraph have compiled a list of the best 110 books that would collectively make 'the perfect library'. The Harry Potter novels are included in the children's books category. Quote: Harry Potter J.K. Rowling
The boy wizard's dealings with the forces of adolescence and evil have sold more than 350 million books in 65 languages. The Harry Potter phenomenon has its detractors, but the success of special 'grown-up' covers, allowing commuters to read Rowling without shame, tells its own tale.

Woot! The HP books are certainly part of the most wonderful books out there  I'm not certain if it should go in the children's book category though... At least not the last ones.

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

Ooooooooooh..that's awesome.
I agreed with Tess though. I'm not too sure about HP being in the Children's Books list.
Just like the LotR actually..
*checks the rest of the list* |

I am so glad that they made this list. Being a school teacher I completely agree they should be in all libraries. They have wonderful plots, characters, and imagination strokers. Congrats JK and HP!

yes! anything that has all the HP books [tons of copies of them] is a perfect library! back in 3rd grade, I was looking for Potter books but our school library only had 3 of each and there were tons of students! I couldn't get my hands on one of them! O______o
