Hermione thought nothing of Mr. Johnson's hasty departure. She looked down
at the letter in her hands. In emerald green ink the envelope read:
Ms. Hermione Granger
Second floor front bedroom
39 Colesworth dr.
Bristol When she flipped it over to open it, she saw a purple wax seal bearing a coat of arms. On it was the letter H surrounded by four animals, a lion, an eagle, a badger and a snake. She went and sat on the puffy couch in the living room and slit open the letter. In it were two pieces of parchment. The first one said:
Hogwarts School
of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore
(Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc., Chf. Warlock,
Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. of Wizards)

Wow! Hermione thought, Me! A witch? Who could've guessed? Of course I am the type. Can I really get all this stuff in London? What do they mean by saying they await my owl? Maybe I should wait and talk to Mum about it. Hm. All of a sudden she heard crying in the next room. Ugh. Daniel must be awake. She tossed the letter on the table and ran to see what caused the kid to cry.
