Hi All,

After a one-week travel to my in-laws( Hey, I survived!) I'll try to 
catch up on the digests.

Zhe big surprises were, of course, all mentioned before.
One thing that really bugged me though, was Ginnys age!! I really 
couldn't believe she was going to Hogwarts in CoS. When I read PS, I 
imagined Ginny to be between 5 and 7 years old. Molly was holding her 
hand all the time, the "which platform"-scene and her crying when the 
train left. Her voice was described as that of a small girl, not a 
ten-year- old. My daughter is nearly 8 and she would certainly 
complain if I try to hold her hand all the time!
