I would've expected it to read more like this:
...knew because the protection she'd given him as a baby had been on his
mind throughout that horrible night....
ANd he came...first his head, then his body, tall [but harry's not tall -
not NOW at least - this makes NO sense, but let's just let it slide] with
untidy hair like Harry's, the man who he'd thought of omroe than any other
tonight....
As you all saw from my earlier email, I've uploaded a large file containing
the page to the files section of the list - if anyone can shrink the file
size while leaving it as clear to read, please do so (and let me know so I
can delete what I put up there & replace it)
Do we have any reporters (like freelance writers...) who might be interested
in doing this as a story & finding out the truth from Scolastic or JKR's
agents? And can anyone in Canada check out a copy of it up there & see if
there's been a change?
