It would be interesting to see what Ginny's boggart would be. Perhaps 
it would be Voldemort (as Tom Riddle) or the Chamber of Secrets??? I 
have a hard time believing that her brothers are particularly mean to 
her. In PS/SS, Fred, George and Ron tell her not to cry and that they 
will send her owls. Ron doesn't seem to torment her that much either. 
In fact, her brothers are rather protective of her as witnessed in
GoF 
when Fred and George grab her hand and run with her into the woods.
