As far as I'm concerned, and I'm not a parent, Harry Potter beats the Judy Blume books any day of the week and twice on Sunday. It's fantasy. Completely. Kids can tell the difference, and with good grounding in faith, it's not going to put a dent in it.

Frankly, I've read science fiction which is ten times more objectionable.

That's for sure. I'd rather give arsenic to my kids than Judy Blume. But that doesn't make Harry Potter good. Same with the objectionable science fiction.
