Review title: Dumbing down children again.
Product review: Harry Potter this is not. There is nothing but a sad attempt to be original or dark in the plot. Defining the mediocre vocabulary is condescending to the reader, especially since most children over 8 years old would be familiar with the words. Even if they weren't, I think it would be a more effective learning tool if they were taught such critical reading skills as learning the meaning of the words from the context of the sentence. I really think the author spent more time thinking up marketing ploys for his books than actually spending quality time in the writing of them.
