Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback

Last week in Harry Potter, we read about Hagrid's new pet. A dragon! He was so excited but everyone else thought he was a little crazy. Who would want a fire breathing dragon as a pet???? Harry and Hermoine were trying to help Hagrid get rid of Norbert, but ended up getting in trouble. Neville and Malfoy got in trouble too! I hope their punishment isn't too bad!

This week's poll question was given by H.N. It's a great one! The first person to write 5 perfect sentences will receive 8 points for their house! Good Luck!

I think if I went to Hogwarts, I would want an owl as my pet. Hedwig is so helpful to Harry! Since owls are used as the post, it would make it very easy for me to stay in touch with my family while I am away from them at school. Also, I think owls are very beautiful and smart creatures. What do you think?

I would want a dragon to protect me from any bad things. However, I might get in trouble because having dragons is illegal. If anyone found out, I'd be in so much trouble. Dragons can be great companions. However, they require training, which would be hard.

I would chose to have a dragon for a pet becasue it can protect me with blowing fire. I would also have a pet dragon because they are cool. But if I had a dragon for a pet where would I keep it. I could probuly keep it in my garage but that wouldn't work.In the book dragons are a big thing. That is why I picked them. M.T.

I think dragon because i love them but they can fly too it fun. But the best thing is about dragon when you go for a camping trip and you cannot put on the fire and you tell your dragon to blow fire and to can eat stuff like fish.Just to tell you that dragon are cool. When your dragon grows up you can travel all over the world in 1 day it will be fun. But if you have a dragon where would i keep him or her? Well i know i will tell my dragon to dig a big hole and put a secret base then i can visit him.But it will take along time to do it.So i put him to a place that is huge then i can visit him.I will bring him food and water to drink.I love dragon that why i chose dragon.

I would have a dragon because they can fiy but I would have to let him or her go. I think the dragon should go with his family. he or her should go and sleep in a cave with his family. or I could keep him or her.

If I was a wizard I would want a owl. I would want that because then I could send a letter to anybody I wanted to. I would wonder if my owl new where the presient lived. Maybe I would try to train my owl how to flip in the air.my owl would be protective to me because I would train it to be fast. Faster than any animal on the planet.

I'll like to have a dragon as a pet because they can blow out fire and thats cool. I would also like to have a dragon as a pet because they can protect me from any other people or animals. Also I'll dislike to have a dragon because when they get really big what are you going to do with it.
Hide it. Guess so. But, where.In your backyard. So if I had a dragon as a pet my mom will say get that thing out of this house before it burns us. So I'll really like to have a dragon as pet because it will be really be cool.

I would get a toad if I was a wizard. I would because I like toads and they are cool. Also they can kroak to scare enimies away. I would like a toad because it is odd. RM

I want a dragon because it would be lots of fun! Well, except for the part when it puts something on fire. That would be a real problem. But when it grows up I'll rid on top of it and soar up to the sky! But then I'll need to give it more food, a lot more food.

If I went to Hogwarts i would want my pet to be an owl. I would want it because you can send messages with it. They also aremt illeagl like dragons. Owls are not old fashioned like toads. The last reason I would want a owl is because it is nocternal and could travel at night.

If I went to Hogwarts I think I would want a owl for a pet. Owls are really reliable like Hedwig is reliable for Harry. Their really smart.My owl would send messages to my friends. And owls are loyal. That's why I would have an owl.

I would want a owl because I would be able to send notes to all my friends. I would study it all the time when I'd have a chance. The owl would play in the woods with his friends all the time. I would get a present for him on his birthday. My friends and I would train him,and feed him.

I would want a pet dragon because it would be able to protect me in any bad situations. But then I would have trouble finding a place for it to live because it`s illegal to have one. On the bright side, you get as many free flights to anywhere in the world at any time!!

If I was a wizard I would want an owl. I would want an owl because they can fly and give you letters quicker. Also it would be a cool pet. They can also fly up to enemies' faces and scare them away. They would be good protection.
