I really remember watching the first Harry Potter film (Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone) with my schoolmates in the classroom during primary school. After the movie, I was extremely amazed and thrilled as Harry Potter introduced me to a magical Wizarding World that I had never imagined. This experience sparked my lasting passion for reading the Harry Potter series. Subsequently, I often went to the public library with my mom and younger sister primarily because of the Harry Potter series. My younger sister and I were very excited whenever new Harry Potter books came out. But the books were very popular, so we had to wait a long time to borrow them from the library.
Time flies! The entire Harry Potter book series was completed in 2007, and the last movie came out in 2011. I still enjoy reading and watching Harry Potter every now and then. Each time, they take me back to that magical world and bring back wonderful memories. As I write this piece for Library Stories, I feel a wave of nostalgia. It’s not just me; I think all the followers who have loved the Harry Potter series for more than a decade may feel the same way.
You can check out the Harry Potter book and movie collection from the library for free anytime!
Happy sharing! Hope you find joy in it.
