Product Description
During his third year at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry, Harry Potter must confront the devious and dangerous wizard responsible for his parents’ deaths.Amazon.com Review
For most children, summer vacation is something to look forward to. But not for our 13-year-old hero, who’s forced to spend his summers with an aunt, uncle, and cousin who detest him. The third book in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series catapults into action when the young wizard “accidentally” causes the Dursleys’ dreadful visitor Aunt Marge to inflate like a monstrous balloon and drift up to the ceiling. Fearing punishment from Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon (and from officials at Hogwarts School of Witch… More >>
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
This book is not sutable for children of any age!!!! Harry and his wizard friend go to an amaganary school called Hagwarts. An evil devil type of thing is after Harry Potter. Harry trys to figure out why, He also trys to figure out why the evil thing killed his parents in the first place. I know the reason is because the were doing witch craft and wizardy. But insted they were killed to be killed. Never let your child read this book because if they do they will try to use witch craft an wizardy. They always win, but really they should be killed with the parents. I am very angry at JK Rowling for writing this book because it is not a Christain book. Also I am very discusted by the publishers for publishing this book.
sincerly,
a strong christian

I cannot believe that Amazon would sell Mr. Potter’s books. All his books are about witch craft and pull children into this cult deeper and deeper with each book. If you don’t believe me, take these books to your pastor or priest or rabbi and ask them what they think! Rating: 1 / 5
i cant believe that people really like these harry potter books. i know that its hard to get kids interested in books. what this author has done has taken off from the violence in tv,movies,video games to make money. this is no different than the hollywood producers. what is even more shocking is that parents let thier kids read this stuff. of course the devil will try to get his dirty tricks in any way and anywhere he can. it may seem harmless at the time but as more people allow thier children to read them the more violent they will come. witchery & magic are of the devil and we are supposed to stay far away from it. of course this has alot to do with greed also. too bad. there have been several studies on the effect of violence in movies,tv.and now i guess they’ll have to study books. i suggest a different type of book be used for kids.the only reason i gave it a one star was because i had to give it a rating in order for it to be passed on for review. i give it no stars just thumbs down Rating: 1 / 5
Christian parents beware! This is not a book you want your kids to read! It’s amazing to me that Christians have been swept away by the media hype over Harry Potter and have completely overlooked the totally anti-Bible and anti-Christian perspective that the Prisoner of Azkaban was written from. I know that wizards, witches, the magical arts, astrology, necromancy, are all said to be the stuff of legends and children’s fantasy. The ignorant and uninitiated say, “No harm done!” But I beg to differ! If you are a Christian parent and you are considering buying this book for your children, I strongly urge you to read what the Bible says about the magical arts, astrology, necromancy and the like before you let your children read this. It may seriously affect their spiritual health! Rating: 1 / 5
I get that it would be fun to be a wizard and have power over adults. I get that it would be fun to go away to boarding school where people try to kill you all of the time. But I get nothing beyond that point. These books are not fun, the writing is monotonous if not arduous and certainly painfully untalented. The stories are almost without plot and the only twist Rolling seems to be able to pen is- “whose the bad guy”. Who cares! There is a bad guy, I get it, make something happen. These non-stories are so dry; all occurrences are situational and not plot driven, leaving virtually no storyline, no fiber. There is some flash in Goblet of Fire that is slightly more entertaining than previous Harry’s, but also less enveloping. The deep and complicated story (giving nothing away) is as follows: Harry goes back to school, there’s a contest, Harry meets the bad guy, NOTHING happens, Harry goes home. Deep. Rating: 1 / 5
