Emiline's Review of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire


Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
 Book by: J.K. Rowling
Report by: Emiline


     Many people have been inspired by J.K. Rowling’s books because of one series--Harry Potter.  Here’s my report on Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

     Back to another amazing year at Hogwarts, but something else lies before Harry and the other students, the legendary Triwizard Tournament.  Hogwarts is competing against two other wizard schools and there can only be one champion from each school.   The champions put their name in the goblet and the goblet decides the champion. Somebody mysteriously puts Harry’s name in the goblet and he becomes the 2nd Hogwarts champion! Harry, along with his other friends Ron and Hermione, tries to solve the case.  
     But the Triwizard tournament is not all that happens.  Hermione starts to make a club for people who think it’s wrong to own house elves, also  known as S.P.E.W.  Harry prepares for his tasks and Rita Skeeter, The Daily Prophet newspaper writer  reports bad things about him .
     Will Harry and his friends succeed?   Find out in the fantastical book, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.


REVIEWERS RESPONSE:

Harry Potter’s adventures always have me hanging at the edge of my seat but this one has to be my favorite! She writes as if she were right  there as if she were the character. She inspires me to write more because of the way she writes.

Emiline's Review of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets


   
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
by J. K. Rowling
Review by Emiline

     Harry Potter has been warned by the Malfoy's house elf, Dobby, that he mustn't go back to Hogwarts, because the Chamber of Secrets has been opened, but Harry longs to see his friends because he is stuck at the Dursley's.  Harry ignores Dobby's warning and returns to Hogwarts.  Danger strikes, someone is turning Hogwart students into stone, and the Chamber of Secrets has been opened by the heir of Slytherin.  Who is the Heir of Slytherin?  Draco?  Or who everyone thinks--  Harry Potter?  And who is turning everyone to stone?

     I love J. K. Rowling's way with words.  She describes the people and places as if she's really there!  She's a stunning writer.  My favorite new character in this book is Fawkes the Phoenix.  I also loved  how J. K. Rowling had a young Tom Riddle, but to find out more about that read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

If I could give the whole series 1,000 out of 1,000 MONSTERS I would, but it only goes up to 5, so I give Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
This book is for people who believe in MAGIC.

Marsh and me in the castle.
Me and my mom at Hagrid's.
