An Ode to Harry Potter
A Painful Re-Examination
It pains me to think of the critiques you have had.
The magic dulled and stained by statements valid yet bad.
My childhood scrutinised then squashed by her hand.
My heart stays with you against her I stand.
Hogwarts is home to the outcasts: Our land.
I hope you understand.

Hey You Guys!!!!
Who remembers learning about phonics on a children's show known as 'The Electric Company"? Back in the seventies on PBS there was an educational show by this name that had famous actors like Rita Moreno and Morgan Freeman and a few others too. This was a show that taught us the rules of phonics and sounding out letters and words. There were fun skits live and animated throughout the show showing and telling each skill. There were lessons on blends as well as on hard and soft sounds. This show made learning to read fun. This was one show that I watched, I believe made me a reader for life for just see for now I am a book reviewer.
