Heh, and I thought I was writing clearly! I was suggesting that you 
add Mrs. Rowley, Widow of Kent, to the Lexicon - pointing out that 
she was a real person and not just a throwaway guest at Nick's 
deathday party. My mention of Fluffy was just another example of the 
enjoyment that adults can get out of this supposedly "children's" 
book. :)

Allyse, who at 30 definitely knows better than to call HP a 
children's book...
