The age of the main character does go up by one for each book, though, because
each book is about one year in Harry's life.  He was 9 in the first book, so by
Goblet of Fire Harry himself was 13.
Well, actually, he was 10 (turning 11) in the first book and 14 in the
fourth.  Also, a main reason for the perhaps "targeted age bracket" of book
4 could have something to do with the fact there's a death of a boy, age 17,
at the end.

It'll be interesting to see what TLC comes up with, since, having read all
four books myself, (I liked them, BTW) can't find much that would be easy to
convert to LEGO bricks.

I don't know.

The press release says that the Harry Potter line of LEGO will arrive
shortly before the movie does, in November of 2001.

It's also an important distinction that the sets will be based on the *movie*,
not the book.
