Part 1 finally helps me understand the meaning of some of the words used in part 2 like Quidditch (a game), defense against the dark arts, baslik, etc.

Harry Potter escaped a pure evil lord nicknamed "he who must not be named" when he was a baby. All he had left was a lightening shaped scar, which made him famous for wizards. Harry gets hundreds of cards from Hogwarts but the people he lives with don't like wizards and burn all the cards he gets. They move very far away and the wizards still deliver cards.

Then finally a wizard from the school comes to take Harry. He tells him what wizard books he needs and supplies. When Harry goes to Hogwarts he gets sorted into a house. There are 4 houses Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff and Harry gets sorted into Gryffindor. To get inducted he had to sing a song: “Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hoggy Warty Hogwarts……..” Everyone started the welcoming feast. Percy the prefect told everybody inside Gryffindor the password to get into the common room. He whispered “pig snout”.

After a month strange things start happening at Hogwarts and Harry figures out that Prof. Quirell is trying to get the Sorcerer’s stone to make gold. Although before he thought it was Prof. Snape because he was always bad to Harry.

Before Slytherin had won the house cup but then Neville, Harry, Hermoine and Ronald got extra points for guarding the stone. So Gryffindor won the house cup instead.

I liked this book because I was interested in how Harry escaped he who must not be named and got to Hogwarts. I also got lots of ideas for my own book.

Harry Potter - part II: The Chamber of Secrets

Year 2: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets



Title: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Series: Harry Potter
Author: J.K. Rowling

I read the second Harry Potter book first because that was the only one I could get right away.

In Harry's second year at Hogwarts strange things happen. He speaks and understands snake language. He hears monsters coming from the Chamber of Secrets. He hears them inside human voice. Lots of people get attacked while the monster called Baslik was let go.

Then finally Harry figures out that Ron's sister Ginny Weasly opened the Chamber of Secrets - which is a Chamber inside the girl's bathroom. He also figures out Tom Marvalo Riddle is "he who must not be named"'s helper and is trying to kill Harry. He saves Ginny and kills the monster called the Baslik.

This book was really mysterious and exciting and pulled me into the story so much so that I could not put it down. I am now really looking forward to reading the first Harry Potter book and all the others in the series.

This Means I Won the Lotto

One day when we were eating in a restaurant my dad wanted to buy some drinks from the mini-mart. I went with dad and there I asked dad to buy me and my brother a lottery ticket. We had to fill a form to choose our numbers and turn into a lottery ticket. I chose 25 as my Mega number and 7 18 21 34 40.

We decided to watch Super Lotto on TV on Saturday night. We missed the show but checked on the Lotto website and I got two numbers correct on my ticket.


I won $2 and decided to buy a lottery ticket with that money. This time I didn't win anything. But it was all a lot of fun.
