"...PS/SS as far as I know it, orginally started out for youngsters,..."

I don't thing so. While I can't quote it or site the interview, I'm
sure Rowlings said that this wasn't written as a children's or young
adults (teens) story. It was just a story; a story that happened to
capture the hearts and minds of children everywhere. But it wasn't
specifically written as a book for young people.

Plus, Harry is getting older and his situations are refecting that.
Remember the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew stayed 16 for about 50 years
(or whatever). Harry Potter is living in real-time.

She had a story to tell and she told that story, and the appeal fell
where it fell.
