Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody, by Michael Gerber. (NOT Harry Potter!!!)

 This week, I read a book from the series of Barry Trotter. If you have read the series of Harry Potter, then it will be interesting to read the Barry Trotter series. 
Barry Trotter attends to Hogwash, the wizard school of Magic. There are four houses, Grittyfloor, Silverfish, Puffnstuff, and Radishgnaw. The main characters of the series are Barry Trotter (Harry Potter), Lonald Measly (Ron, Ronald Weasley), Ermine Cringer (Hermione Granger), and Professor Alpo Bumblebore.
 It is interesting to read a parody, because everything is so different, yet similar and connected to the originals in some way. Barry and Lon are very good friends with Hafwig (Hagrid), and enemies with Professor Bumblebore. Mrs. McGoogle (Professor McGonagall),  As in the original series, Barry Trotter despises Mr. Snipe and Draco Malfeasance, I'm sure you can guess who they are!
 In the "Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody", Muddles (Muggles) are the fans of our dear Barry. It is very unusual, in the books, Barry is loathed by all wizards. His attempts to kill Lord Valumart dissapoints all witches and wizard in the magical world.
