For Harry Potter fans young and old, Pocket Potter’s is a wonderful way to become intimate with each of the characters in the Harry Potter series. Each character is described and given a back story. We learn about Luna Lovegood and her role in supporting Harry through his adventures. She is a unique and delightful young lady.

Luna first meets Harry at the beginning of her fourth year at Hogwarts. He notices that she is a bit dreamy and unconventional, when they share a train carriage to school. She stores her wand behind her ear and reads upside down. However, when no-one else believes that the wizard has seen Voldemort, Luna supports him.

We find out more about other Houses at Hogwarts, as Luna shows Harry the entrance to Ravensclaw. You have to answer a puzzle to enter the door, as Ravensclaw students’ values are wit, learning and wisdom.

There are many more examples of Luna and Harry meeting. We examine details about Luna that have not been told before. These are lovely additions to the original series and certainly expand knowledge of the minor characters in the book.
