This is such a great read AND a great movie. I have done a lesson on conflict and characterization and used Harry and Voldemort’s relationship as a useful example. I think this book is a great opportunity for students to get in touch with their creative sides. I think that the idea of magic is captivating for students and keeps them interested in the novel.
