    I, too, would like some information on the "two versions of Harry
Potter"--if there are two versions.  The reason I ask is because I have
"Harry" in braille and on 4-track cassette tape, as well as in regular
print.  (This is a school for the blind.)  I had one of my sophomores who is
interested in reading these types of books bring back his "Harry" today
because it was for "little kids"---he says the tape gives him information
that this book is for 3rd-4th grade readers.

     My print copies are the "adult / student" editions---and I have another
student (a senior) who is reading the braille copy and loves it--he too, is
a savvy reader and WOULD NOT read a child's book--if he found that it
contained something juvenile or suggested that it were for a younger reader.
I would like to know if this is true or if my tape reader / listener just
listened to the beginning of the tape and decided that I was completely off
my rocker to give him a National Bestseller for children when he wanted
something else--he is one who reads L. Ron Hubbard for FUN! (which is
great--but also gives you an indication of his reading ability--he's blind).

TIA
