Comment:
I think that Luna will help Harry more in overcoming his feeling of 
isolation, that he is different from others.  She is different from 
other as well, get taunted and teased, but deals with it!  Harry will 
learn how to deal with it from her.

On a side note, as I was driving to school, listening to the radio, a 
song came on that remined me of Luna.  I cannot think of the anme of 
the song, but the refrain goes something like
 love goes where my Rosemary goes, and nobody knows but me.  
Something aobut her hand holding mine, its a feeling that's fine,and 
I just gotta say hey. She's really got a magical spell and its 
working so well.....  And there is other stuff about being Rosemay 
being perceived as weird, and wearing odd clothes etc.  I think it 
fit our lovely little Luna quite well!
