Book Update:
The book I am writing about today is Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, by J.K. Rowling. I have read 339 pages of this book so far. So far, it is about Harry Potter and his friends Ron and Hermione navigating their third year at Hogwarts. Harry plays on the Quidditch team, helps Hagrid prevent his pet from execution, faces evil dementors, and deals with peculiar teachers, all under the looming threat of Sirius Black coming after him.Characterization:
I would like to interview Hermione Granger.1. Why do you take so many subjects?
I want to ask her this because she is so overloaded with homework and classes, and I want to know why she does that to herself.
2. How do you get to all your classes on time?
I want to ask her this because throughout the story, we learn that Hermione sometimes has two classes scheduled at the same exact time, and somehow makes it to both of them.
3. How did you feel when Harry and Ron stopped talking to you?
I want to ask her this because when Harry and Ron started staying away from Hermione because they thought her cat ate Ron's mouse, we didn't really get to see what Hermione was doing because the story follows only wherever Harry goes.
Characterization 2:
If Harry Potter was a girl instead of a boy, she would be Harriet Potter. Harriet would be much closer to Hermione and they wouldn't have fought as much as Harry and Hermione. Harriet might have also had a better childhood because Dudley might have not teased and tortured her as much as he did to Harry. Snape might have also hated her less because she wouldn't look like James Potter(who Snape hated) as much.
Setting:
If the characters were placed into our present, the story would be different in many ways. First of all, the secret Hogwarts castle wouldn't be so secret because students would post pictures of it from their phones. Also, students might use online textbooks and computers in their classes. Teachers might also have to punish students for using their phones in class.
Conflict:
Harry is about to make the decision to fight Sirius Black after he finds out that he was actually the black dog he has been seeing. The advice I would give him would be to listen to what Black has to say before trying to attack him. Anyway, he wouldn't be able to kill Black because he is older, taller, and more experienced at magic than Harry.
Connection:
If I could, I would jump into the story when Harry, Ron, and Hermione leave dinner to go to Hagrid's house. I would watch them closely because the three of them escape Hogwarts castle often. I would follow them and ask them where they were going, and that might have stopped them from going to Hagrid's house and being pulled into the Whomping Willow. This would prevent them from having a confrontation with Sirius Black.
