Harry Potter Series

I already finished reading all seven Harry Potter books. My favorite book is “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”. It is the last of the series. In this book, Harry set out on a journey to find the remaining Horcruxes and destroy Lord Voldemort. My favorite part is where Kreacher, leading the house-elves in the battle of Hogwarts, fought so hard for Harry. I was happy that Kreacher finally appreciated his new master.

My favorite characters are Harry, Dumbledore, Hermione and Ron. I admire Harry for his bravery. He stood up to Voldemort who was feared by almost all wizards and fought him even when he knew that he could die. Albus Dumbledore is a wise and helpful man. He saved Harry from danger many times and he helped Harry learn magical skills. He was like a father to Harry. Hermione Granger is very smart. She could do spells Harry and Ron did not know. She taught Harry how to do a Summoning Charm during his preparation for the first task of the Triwizard Tournament. In the last book, she managed to bring a lot of things needed for the journey by putting a stretching jinx on her bag. She also cast protective spells around their tent when they were hiding. I like Ron Weasley because he was a loyal friend to Harry. Even when he was angry with Harry during their fourth year in Hogwarts, Ron still helped Harry with the first task of the Triwizard Tournament. If I were in Hogwarts, I would have liked to be in Gryffindor because that was the House where Harry belonged.

My favorite spells are: Stupefy (Stunning Spell) , Expelliarmus (Disarming Charm), Petrificus Totalus (Body-Bind Curse), Accio (Summoning Charm), Protego (Shield Charm) and Impedimenta (Impediment Jinx). These spells came in handy several times for Harry and his friends.

I enjoyed reading the Harry Potter books because they are exciting and wonderful. I will surely read them over and over again.

A Story for Trixi

The other day, Trixi told me that she made a book for me. (Actually, she scribbled some letters on a sheet of paper, which she folded in two.) I thought it was sweet of her to do that so I decided to do something special for her too. Since she’s just learning how to read, I made her a story, which she can read by herself. Here it is:

“Trixi Gets A Pet”

Trixi walked with Mama to the pet shop. She was going to get a pet. When she went in, she saw many animals. She sees a goldfish, a dog, and an orange cat. Trixi buys the orange cat. She calls the cat “Kitty”. Everyday, Trixi calls Kitty and then they play for 5 hours with their toy ball and then Trixi will read Kitty a story. At dinner, Trixi will give Kitty some cat food and milk. Then, Trixi will tuck in Kitty in her bed. Trixi will say “Good night, Kitty. See you tomorrow.” Then Trixi will sleep and dream about the next day. From that day on, Trixi and Kitty became best friends. The End.
