Harry Potter Series is a favorite fantasy for kids of all ages. Harry and his friends are wizards and witches afterall and living in the muggle world. Good vs. evil, Lord Voldemort and the death eaters who want Harry and the Order of the Phoenix dead. A whole other world. The first few make good read-alouds and they get progressively more mature and dark as the books go along and the charcters get older. They go from great middle grade fiction to fabulous YA fiction. These are unbelievable cross-over books for adults!
