AccioSirius Jen:
In the U.S. version, Chapter 2, page 17 - "Harry put his face into
his hands, blocking out his bedroom, trying to hold on to the
picture of that dimly lit room, but it was like trying to keep water
in his cupped hands; the details were now trickling away as fast as
he tried to hold on to them..."
The only part he could remember was that Voldemort and Wormtail were
plotting to kill him and that they had killed someone else. In
hindsight, I don't think it would've mattered if he had included his
dream in the letter since Dumbledore already knew about the prophecy
and knew that Lord Thingy was trying to find a way to kill Harry.
The rest of the vision is what would've mattered, IMO.
When I had first read about Harry not including it, I thought the
same thing that you did, but then I thought of him not being able to
remember the dream. I hope this makes some sense... because I'm
starting to confuse myself!
