My favorite fictional character


Last week, as part of the blog project that my students have, they were asked to write about their favorite fictional character. Now, I'm going to follow my own instructions and write about my character.

When we read books, there is always one character that sticks to us and we love them until the end. That character could be either someone that we would like to be, or someone who is already like us. I love reading, and I've met both types of characters, but today I'll write about Hermione Granger from Harry Potter series. Hermione is a smart, passionate girl with great morals and views about what's right and wrong. She is a loyal friend, and her two best friends are boys. Apparently, Hermione is a "nerd". But I think she's much more than that. She taught me to be proud of being smart. She also showed me that is completely fine to get along with boys much more than girls. She grows up to be a confident, brave woman and I just adore the development that J.K Rowling, the author of the books, gives her. Hermione is not only clever, she is also efficient and in charge of her own life. And just to make things better, she kissed Ron first. She was brave and awesome enough to take the boy that she liked, and give him a kiss. 

I believe that she is a very good role model for girls nowadays. If you haven't read about her, I would recommend you to do it.


 

Greetings

This is me, and if you're reading this, I'm probably your teacher. This blog is a way of saying thank you and congratulations. Congratulations, because you are all bloggers now. You are writing and expressing yourselves through words. There is a great joy in words, and even more if they come from your head and heart. And finally, thank you for sharing those entries with me. Every Sunday, I sit down with a hot cup of tea in front of my computer and reading you makes me feel incredibly hopeful and glad.

Keep writing, dreaming, being alive.
