I very strongly disagree, I think the book 6 Harry is a better person
than the book 1 Harry. It's true that Harry is not more moral in book
6 than he was in book 1, he was very moral then he's very moral now;
so if you limit yourself to that one dimension then yes, Harry has not
grown.  But you seem to be assuming that morality is the only virtue
there is, it is not. Intelligence is also a virtue, and so is power.
We have already seen evidence that Harry is one hell of a lot wiser
than he was in book 1, and I think in book 7 Voldemort and Snape will
both find he has a hell of a lot more magical horsepower than he had
in book 1. Virtues all.
