Not sure where this post started but has anyone read any of the "So 
you want to be a wizard?" series.  I read them last winter.  Actually 
got the first one while waiting for a potter book to come out.  
thought that they were new.  And as I read them I thought "Oh my god 
this girl is going to get into trouble for copying JKR.  But 
interestingly enoughth the Wizard series was actually started in the 
70's.  There are some similarities.   sherry
