Frosted Flakes: Young Muggles Learning The Ways of Harry Potter and Valentine Cockroaches

At the request of my children, I started reading Harry Potter to them a few months ago. They are almost 7 and 4, so I thought it was kind of young, but since they requested I obliged.

Throughout the first book my oldest listened fairly intently, while my youngest did his best to play around and not really listen. The best listener of all was my husband. He doesn’t like to read but did really enjoy hearing the story.

During the second book, my oldest started to get worried that Harry, Hermione, and Ron would get in trouble when they drank the poly juice potion and he could hardly stand for me to read it.
