Summary: The 7th and final year of the epic tale of Harry Potter.
Strengths: This is my absolute favorite book in the entire world! It is extremely easy to follow and understand and gives great description and imagery and imagination. The chapter titles explain what is going to happen and I could not put it down. The illustrations in the beginning of each chapter are very cute. I love the climactic surprises and how it keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Concerns: The length of the book is intimidating and this can turn off readers. I feel like, just how the movie is going to be, it could have been split up into 2 books since there is so much that happens that could fill it in 2 books.
Age level: All ages
Classroom Use: It is fun for pleasure and the characters are very relatable minus the magic and wizardry portion.
