Harry Potter: Why Are We Obsessed?


After millions of books and four movies have been created people still talk about Harry Potter and his friends. This series has taken the world by storm, and it truly has an international presence as readers in 200 nations, in over 40 languages, indulge in these books and movies. A U.S. consumer research survey reports that "over half of all children between the ages of 6 and 17 have read at least one Harry Potter book". With the financial backing of Warner Brothers, Mattel, Coca Cola, and Scholastic, Inc., Potter is sure to be a force to reckon with, for years to come. Public school educators and many parents in America are thrilled with a series that has captured the imagination of children like no other in history, prompting a revived interest in reading.

Doesn't seem too bad to me. However, I would spell out 200 as two hundred and 40 as forty. And in your quote about over half of all children, put the ending period inside the quote. And personally, I would not put a comma in the sentence about a force to reckon with for years to come. Ohter that that, I think it looks pretty good!
Reply:If this is your intro paragraph, don't use a quote in it. Teacher will ding you for it.
Reply:The real question is what does this have to do with grammar ?
