there are a few reasons. many other magical stories take place in faraway lands or in the past or in the future. but harry lives in modern england. he is also a very normal boy: polite, friendly; brave and clever. so, when other children read about harry, they can imagine being like him. j. k. rowling is very happy with the success, and is now busy finishing the rest of the series of seven books. she is writing full time and is really enjoying life. she says she will go on living a normal life with her daughter and continue writing childrens books.
