Harry a passing fad?

Meet Shimale the kosher toy boy. He has sidecurls and fringes, and says phrases from the morning prayers. Shimale is the toy many haredi kids are praying for. And he seems to be the answer to their parents’ prayers… Wellcom staffers dismiss comparisons to the Harry Potter phenomenon, which they say is a passing fad. They hope Shimale’s magic will last much longer, more like Winnie-the-Pooh’s.
