I feel that J.K rowling does an excellent job of recaptoring our youth
in an honest and refreshing way. Her ability to vividly present her
ideas and challenge the imaginations of both young and old is a skill
to be marvelled. I am quite sure she surpasses Roald Dahl and equals
C.S. Lewis in her ability to take fantasy and make it it so real in our
minds eye that the lines seperating her works from our reality can easily
become blurred. As for the negative feedback. I can only say there will
always be small minded people in this world. People who think that a
child's love for reading might surpass their love for God or whomever
the parent deems appropriate. This is a trust issue of the parent and
NOT a problem of the literature or the love of it.
