Scholastic Kids Fun Online: Harry Potter
© 2002 Scholastic, Inc.
Fans of Harry Potter, or those new to the series, will enjoy this site that offers synopses of each book, interviews with the author and illustrator, and a fun Harry Potter quiz. The site focuses on the characters' relationships and their learning and educational experiences at school, and promotes the new book. The best activity is the Wizard's challenge quiz, where kids are prompted to answer questions about the book series. Quiz questions are submitted by children, who are also given a chance to contribute in the photo gallery and discussion forum. Note that several of the activities are sponsored by toy and fast food companies. http://www.scholastic.com/harrypotter/home.asp.
