How Can I Harry Potter Civics?

While standing in line for Harry Potter last night (only an hour, the Wal-Mart wasn't party central like BN and Borders) I began to wonder how I could get that kind of attraction around the social sciences in the classroom.  If I taught something else I'd be thinking "How can I Harry Potter _____?"

It was amazing, people of all ages, lined up for a book.  I know it was the last one, but there has to be something more than just the conclusion of the story, as people have been lining up for these books for years.  It's a great story, and a realtively easy read (kids books), but there's something else there.  I want that something else for my classroom.
