HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD, by J.K. Rowling

The story: Harry Potter is now a middle-aged man with a 15-year-old son, Albus. When Albus and best friend Scorpius Malfoy try to change history for the better by bringing Cedric Diggory back from the dead, they find that the ripples in time are more than they control, magic wand or not.

June Cleaver's ratings: Language PG; Violence PG; Sexual content G; Nudity G; Substance abuse G; Magic & the occult PG-13; GLBT content G; adult themes (parent and child discord) PG; overall rating PG.

Liz's comments: Appropriate for MS libraries, because even though it's about Harry as an adult, it's more focused on Albus and Scorpius. MS readers might have a bit of difficulty with the fact that this isn't a novel but rather a script for the play, but if they're fans of the world of Harry and Hogwarts, that won't prove a deterrent. Good times!
