What positive qualities does Schoefer
identity in the Harry Potter books? What other positive features does she
ignore? Is she justified in not discussing these positive aspects of the books,
or does her failure to do so mean she is unfairly slanting her evidence?
Several positive qualities that
Schoefer describes I how it leads the best sellers list, how much parents like
the fact that their children have become avid readers, how her daughter embellishes
the Harry Potter character and the mile-long waiting lists at the public
library. She was fascinated by the magical world, wizards, sorcerers, and
Hogwart's School of witchcraft. There are several other positive factors that
Schoefer ignores such as; the struggle between good and evil, the unhappiness
Harry had to face growing up. Schoefer also ignores the value of the
many mentors Hogwart’s students have that are not only important but help to
teach many life’s lessons. Another important aspect that was overlooked was children
can overcome being bullied. Schoefer down grades Hermoine’s self worth. Even
though Harry was bullied by other students he never allowed the circumstances
to make him bitter. These books are here to be enjoyed by all and I personally
enjoyed reading them because they let one use their imaginations to take them
beyond reality. Schoefer seems to be more
focused on the sexist instead of the actual stories. Schoefer
also ignores the value of the many mentors Hogwart’s students have that are not
only important but help to teach many life’s lessons. Another important aspect
that was overlooked was children can overcome being bullied. Harry Potter was
bullied by other students, but he did not let these obstacles keep him down.
Harry Potter persisted and succeeded through adversity. Schoefers’ failure to
mention several positive aspects obviously means that she has an unfair
slanting of her evidence. The focus of the portrayal of females in the Harry
Potter trilogy would definitely persuade someone's opinion of these books.
Leaving out the lessons learned by reading these books is not being objective.
