Harry so far has gone shopping with Hagrid. While they were shopping, Harry has met a boy at the cloak shop. That boy turns out to be Draco Maloy. Harry doesn't like Malfoy from the start. After Hagrid bought all the things that were necessary for Hogwarts, Hagrid sends Harry on his way to Hogwarts on a train. When Harry is boarding the train, he meets Ron Weasley and all of his siblings. Ron has 5 brothers and 1 sister. His brothers are all older that him and already go to Hogwarts. On the ride to Hogwarts, Harry and Ron become friends. They also meet Hermione Granger. Ron and Harry did not like Hermione at first. They thought she was bossy. When the train reached Hogwarts, they all boarded small rowboats and sailed to land. After they got off the rowboats, they entered Hogwarts for the first time.

If I were Harry, I would have wanted some siblings. Ron has 6 siblings but he doesn't want to have siblings because he is the youngest. Harry feels sorry for him because Harry knows how it feels to be neglected. But Harry would still think it would be nice to have some one to talk to that doesn't hate him.

  1. Devon, I like how you start the second paragraph with "If you were the character" response. However, this post and your next one are mainly summaries, not responses. You are telling what's happening, not what YOU THINK about what is going on. Refer back to the questions and pick a few specific ones to focus on to ensure you don't just summarize events.
