Speaking of Harry Potter's crossover appeal, the one particular scene that cinched my adult (and former child's) love of the book was the moment that Harry actually sees his parents for the first time. Can anyone witness that without forever loving Harry, the author, and the book? This scene will always stay in my memory, and I think that if one episode can make a book, this one did. I'm not discounting Quiddich and muggles and jelly beans, and Nearly Headless Hal, but this scene raised the book to a profound emotional level for me. Fran
