I second that thought!

I have a DD, who is already an avid reader and at the ripe old age of 8 knocked out the first Potter book in 7 days. That is much faster then her father, who took at least 3 weeks. Granted he doesn't have as much time on his hands, but even I managed the longest book in 2 days.

I love the fact that she scored in the 98th percentile (on national level of ranking) in her reading and comprehension tests score this year. I am even prouder (even though he hasn't picked up a Potter book on his own yet-just our family bedtime readings) that my oldest DS hit 99% this year as well. Reading is so important, and no matter what gets them into it, I am glad there are books that get this much press attention to entice them to read. It is much better than the Spears and Lohan press IMHO. When was the last time that any childrens or fanatsy books had been given this much press and hype?
