Hermione Granger "Has anyone seen a toad? Neville's lost one." With that line Hermione Granger walks into Harry's and Ron's lives for the first time. She is a bossy know-it-all and the boys don't have a very good first impression of her, but all that changes when Harry and Ron rescue Hermione from a Mountain Troll in the girls' toilet. Here are a few questions to get started discussing Hermione in the first book. Feel free expand on these. • What was your first impression of Hermione? Did it take you a while to warm up to her or have you never warmed up to her? • What do you think was Hermione's first impression of Harry? Of Ron? • Do you think Hermione is an introvert or an extrovert? • Why do you think Hermione was sorted into Gryffindor? What Gryffindor characteristics does she exhibit in this book? • What weaknesses or vulnerabilities does Hermione show in this book? • Hermione is not at Hogwarts when Harry discovers the Mirror of Erised and shows it to Ron. What do you think the twelve-year-old Hermione would have seen in the Mirror had she been there? • When Harry and Ron become entangled in the Devil's Snare Hermione has trouble thinking to use her bluebell flame spell to light a fire. Why do you think she couldn't remember it? How does this compare to the time Harry was about to fall off his broom at the Quidditch match? • How do you think Hermione changes in this book? What lessons does she learn from her friendship with Harry and Ron? This post has been edited by Segonku: Oct 30 2007, 08:34 PM -------------------- Finite incantatem! |
