 Harry Potter has the same energy as Coraline in taking things that really shouldn’t be normal, then treating them in such a way that children will immediately find them recognizable and normal, while adults will immediately find them horrifying. It’s just that in this case, the “monster” is child abuse. Harry is so matter-of-fact about all the shit the authority figures in his life pull, and children nod along as they remember all the horrible shit their own authority figures did.
