Harry Potter and Odysseus

Let's have a little fun this week with the opening of the last Harry Potter movie. There are many similarities that the heroes of these two epic tales share. I did this type of question a few years ago and one student in particular responded most awesomely to my taunts and claims. Here is the opportunity for you to share your discoveries in the comment section (or via email: matlucm@martin.k12.fl.us).

This little contest amongst Rowling and Homer readers can be fun - but that depends upon you guys. Do not be daunted by this challenge. You will share similarities, not exact comparisons that are above and beyond all dispute! If you think of a similarity, then please share it. No one will ridicule any one else too much. ;-)
