Potioncat:
I agree with you about Philosopher's Stone and so does my 9 year old 
son.  And I would prefer to read the books as written.  Quite 
honestly, only true readers of any age will pick up a Harry Potter 
book.  That's why I'd like a glossary for those who need a little 
help with some of the phrases. But I understand why Scholastic 
started out the way they did.(Except for the title change.)

As for my OT examples.  Very good, poke is a bag (Pig in a Poke).
When I was in Newport, RI in the Navy, a milkshake did not include 
ice cream it was indeed, milk and flavoring.  I think it was a frappe
(?) if you wanted ice cream and there was a third similar type 
drink.  None of this would be very important if you were reading the 
words in a story, but very important if you were ordering one!

My youngest son is starting to use some of the British phrases from 
Harry Potter without realizing it isn't "American."
