Our family has taken a unique approach to how we let our kiddos read the Harry Potter book series, and I brought my 11-year-old son, Walter, on the show to talk about it. We talked about the magic of the wizarding world, why fairytales make for wonderful reading, how the books turned him into a voracious reader, why audiobooks are wonderful (and definitely “count” as reading!), and some other titles Walter has enjoyed lately.
