Comparison Of Harry Potter, AndCadmus Potter?

It was the first day back at school for a new year. Many of us still longed to be on holiday, carefree and careless. It showed on our faces as we grumpily and wearily made our way along the corridors to our House Room. This year our form (11) had a new student. When we walked in we all just looked at him, scrutinizing, mentally noting anything unusual. There was something about him though, but I couldn't quite see it. Nobody interacted with him at first - the teachers were all around him, then he was set free, for us students to talk with him, I didn't talk to him myself, rather I just listened to the questions of others, which, he answered them faintly. They ask him questions to get him talking, to get him relaxed, but he simply answered

She leaned back on the couch and relaxed. “True. So, who was zhe other Gryffindor today? I don’t remember him from last year.”

The entire class shared Jake’s view. No one felt the need to squander his or her social capital in defense of the weirdly dressed new kid. Side chatters and new conversations spawned on. The first three sentence about me in my new school involved “Hello”, yoga ball and panda. Embarrassed, I locked eye with the usual spot between my shoes as the crimson red slowly retreated from my face.

“I feel excited, mostly, but I’m nervous about the changes. I am not sure you’ll be pleased with one of my suggestions.”

Taking a moment to examine my surroundings, I looked to see who my classmates were. Students were scattered across the room in their own little

More students started drizzling into the empty halls, the voices getting louder. Hearing laughter throughout the halls as groups of students gathered in circles

“Wait, don’t leave me here with this! Come on, I’ll read one spell, just for fun. I don’t know how to use magic anyway. Nothing’ll happen and we’ll get a good laugh.”

The “Harry Potter” series, “Charlotte 's Web” and “The Chronicles of Narnia” series all have something in common: they are beloved, classic books read by children throughout the world. But that’s not the only trait the novels share -- they have also all been challenged by various schools and organizations for religious purposes. “Harry Potter” and Charlotte 's Web” have been deemed blasphemous by some devout religious followers -- the former because it promotes witchcraft and the later because it gives humanistic qualities to animals. But it is not only because a book can be viewed as sacrilegious that it gets challenged on the grounds of religion. Those who challenged “The Chronicles of Narnia” did so because of its strong ties to Christianity, and people did not want to introduce such a strong Christian view to children. Whether a book is seen as denouncing or promoting religion, it can be considered a threat to the shaping of children’s spiritual beliefs. Hundreds of books have been challenged, and doing this is adults’ way of policing what a child should read. Specifically, banning a book for its religious implications tells children not only what they should and should not read, but also what they should and should not believe, as is the case with “Harry Potter,” “Charlotte 's Web” and “The Chronicles of Narnia.” By doing so, adults are unfairly denying children of their autonomy. In addition, these challenges have the potential to limit the number of stories to which

I groan as Slughorn walks into the Potions Classroom, “Hello everyone.” he smiles. “So, today we will be working on notes, but before we start I’d like to discuss some issues that we had last year.” I could hear Sirius and James chuckle behind me, and Remus hung his head.

To Kill a Mockingbird is a novel written in 1960 by Harper Lee. The novel addresses the issue of racism and inequalities in the social structure in the American south during the Great Depression. The novel’s main protagonist is Jean Louise Finch, also known as Scout. Scout’s father, Atticus Finch, is a lawyer and in the novel, he defends a black man accused of raping a white woman. The novel focuses on the racial issues that form around this case. Another, much different, literary work that also deals with similar issues of inequality is the Harry Potter series. The Harry Potter series, written by J.K Rowling, focuses on the inequalities in a fictional world of wizards. Similar

I began to walk to my chair as all the students began to stare. My cheeks began to turn bright red, a all my blood rushed to my head.

“Well, I just want to be in that house, that’s all. I mean, it kind of runs in family. Everyone in my family who went to Hogwarts has ended up in Ravenclaw.”

Throughout the Harry Potter novels, there have been many similarities between King Arthur and Harry Potter. Harry and Arthur have shared similarities since the beginning of their lives, they were both orphaned and raised by relative, and they both grew up unaware of their great destiny. Arthur was the only one who could pull the sword Excalibur out of the stone, or from a hand coming out of the lake which proves he is the true king. Just like only a true Gryffindor could pull the sword of Godric Gryffindor out of the sorting hat and find it in the lake. Harry’s mentor throughout the entire series is Dumbledore who taught transfiguration and King Arthur’s mentor was Merlin, an old man with a long white beard who was also a shapeshifter. Harry was given an invisibility cloak by Dumbledore and Arthur had a cloak that made whoever wore it invisible. Ron had a chess set that Harry and him played with where the pieces moved by themselves and at the end of Sorcerer’s Stone they encountered a life-size version. Arthur also had a chess board where the pieces could move all by themselves. The Mirror of King Rhyence was Merlin’s mirror where the person looking at the mirror will see whatever they wish. Harry stumbled upon the mirror of erised which showed you what you want most in the world. Harry and King Arthur both have enemies named Lucius as well. Throughout all the similarities between the two characters makes both stories very interesting.

As I walked into the classroom for my first day of observations, I was greeted

The minute I walked in the students were at play. Primarily there was a lot of dramatic play going on. I overheard a conversation between two boys:
