Includes this text:
>>> After they took Harry Potter off the adult bestseller list at the New
York Times, there was a full season before anything that an adult would
want to read went on it. It was a summer of Danielle Steel and Sandra
Brown potboilers. Harry Potter is far better written than those.<<<
Plus a song of praise for good Childrens' librarians...
