| | |  Quote of the Week - Wayne Rooney
During the Manchester United Foundation tour of schools and libraries, it was revealed that the football player Wayne Rooney is a fan of the Harry Potter books, with Philosopher's Stone being his favourite of them all. Quote:
“The Harry Potter books are favourites with a lot of children, and the same goes for a lot of adults.”
“I’d encourage any child to read them, because they really get your imagination going.”
Included in the story was this graphic;  | |

Sounds good  And I suppose that's yet ANOTHER proof that HP isn't a series of books for children *pokes everyone who thinks it is*

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.

I don't know why, I saw "Wayne Rooney" in the news headline and giggled a little. He's a funny guy...
But yes, even football players read Harry Potter! Wouldn't it be brilliant if Gerrard came out saying "OMG I love Ron Weasley, he's the best!!!"
And HP isn't a kids series. Considering some of us are well past the "children" stage in our lives... my aunt and dad are potty about the series, too.

I really don't like Wayne Rooney. 
If kids and adults listen to him,though,and pick up a HP book then great.

haha. Nice quote! I completely agree with Mr. Rooney there. And that graphic is rather humourous.
