I am reading Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling. In this chapter I predict that Harry will not get to his classes because there are alot of people surrounding him from his dorm because he's famous and they all want to see him. I also think Harry and Ron will like there school house and classes.

I had a few questions while I was reading. The first question I have is who is Peeves? He is a ghost that pours water on peoples heads and he is basicly a trouble maker. The second question I have is how many staircases are there at Hogwarts ? There are 142 staircases in Hogwarts. That's alot and some of them move. I also got stuck on the word poltergeist and learned it means ghost.

The Awesome Harry Potter book!

I am still reading Harry Potter and the Socerers Stone. It is a really good book. I think that Hermione and Harry are going to be friends. I am wondering if they will be on the same Quidditch team at Hogwarts.

While I was reading the question I had was what are Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff? I learned that these are the names of the school houses and that each person gets put into a different house. I wonder why?
The other question I had was why is everyone so interested in Quidditch? It's because Quidditch is the main sport played in the wizarding world and everyone likes it.

The word I needed help on was nearly. I learned that it means almost.
