I am reading the book Harry Potter Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling.
The title of the chapter is Snape's Grudge. I predict that Snape will hold a grudge on Harry because Harry's dad picked on Snape when he was at hogwarts. My prediction was correct. Harry's dad played jokes on Snape but saved Snape's life. Snape gives Harry detentions for being a couple of minutes late to class, for wandering the hallways and not helping Malfoy(a boy in Slytherin House that hates Harry).
Hermione's cat ate Scabbers, Ron's rat. When is Ron going to forgive Hermione? Ron forgave Hermione after she told them about Buckbeak's execution. Buckbeak is a giant horse/Bird creature that belongs to Hagrid. Buckbeak is being executed because he scratched Malfoy on the arm with 3" talons. Ron said he would help Hermione fight for Buckbeaks innocence.
There was a word I needed help with. It was euphoria. After I read around the word I had an idea what it meant. The sentence was "Harry's euphoria at finally winning the Quidditch Cup lasted at least a week." Euphoria means extremely happy. Harry was very excited about winning the Quidditch Cup, he was euphoric.

George,
ReplyDeleteFantastic clarifying! You did exactly what I want you to do. Great job figuring out the word euphoria! I feel like there was quite a bit of summarizing in this post. I know you can summarize; show me some deep thinking!
