Harry Potter Says Goodbye

By Liz Bulkley on Thursday, July 19, 2007.

Back when Harry Potter was still just a kid, so were most of his readers. And as Harry grew up, so did they. Now, the final book is about to be released, and spellbound fans are eager to find out how it will all end. Tonight on the Front Porch, we'll delve into the Harry Potter phenomenon with some kids who grew up with Harry and the gang. And we'll explore the traditional British literature that inspired the series.


Our guests are:

James Krasner, Professor of British Literature at the University of New Hampshire

Emily and Hilary Judd, die-hard Harry Potter fans. Emily is 18, Hilary is 14, and both girls grew up reading the series.

We'll also hear a radio piece about the Harry Potter phenomenon that was produced for the Front Porch by Bill Slammon.
