This work was done as an assignment for Paula Flynn's Fifth Grade class at Franklin Elementary, in Santa Monica, CA.

Hogwarts soaring above my head, the ecstatic Harry Potter fans walking around, amazed
seeing their favorite book come alive. Hagrid’s roller coaster, and the long-but worth it 4 hour
line to ultimate Harry potter ride
The sunlight shining down on Hogsmeade, the fake snow shining bright
The sound of chattering people, and the whoosh of the rides
The excitement bubbling up inside me, this is my dream, being in Hogwarts
When can I go back?
