There is a great article on this subject on the Memoria Press website.
The idea basically is that all literature can be dangerous if it is the only literature a person has read, the only ideas they have come across. Literature becomes less dangerous the more one reads. By being exposed to many ideas one learns to discern when they are reading something bad, good or great. Great literature is literature that teaches truth and inspires a person to do good.
Harry Potter is only dangerous if it is the only thing read. Otherwise, it is a good book with a good story, but not a great book.
