So teachers should not spoil Harry Potter by forcing students to read it.
You believe setting books to read spoils them for children, the same way, say, taking kids on school trips to places spoils the places for children?
Actually I found the best experience of books only occurred when it wasn't on the compulsory reading list, e.g. in my case Pride and Prejudice.
