Dobson has sharply criticzed the [[Harry Potter]] books:
:"Magical characters — witches, wizards, ghosts, goblins, werewolves, poltergeists and so on — fill the Harry Potter stories, and given the trend toward witchcraft and New Age ideology in the larger culture, it's difficult to ignore the effects such stories (albeit imaginary) might have on young, impressionable minds."<ref> </ref>"Dr. Dobson: 'What I Think About Harry Potter'" [http://listen.family.org/miscdaily/A000000593.cfm online]</ref>
