Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

I just finished reading this with Andrew (my 5 year old) and it was just as magical as I remember it. This is my first time rereading the series, and I was surprised at some of the details I'd forgotten.

Andrew, Chris and I discussed it over dinner last night. It's amazing to me how much Andrew understood. I thought a lot of it would be over his head, but if you ask him to explain the book, he can do it in great detail. He keeps asking questions about how or why things work and I have to admit - he stumps me sometimes. Most of his questions have never occurred to me before. Are all children smarter than their parents?
