Arthur Levine, co-editor of the “Harry Potter” books, said that the trivia questions help sustain the excitement surrounding the books.

“The hoopla has been going on for years, a decade,” Levine told The Early Show weatherman Dave Price. “We’re part of that excitement. We’re wondering all these questions, too. We wanted to help focus the conversation and be part of all the excitement, with all the readers who are wondering.”
