Dear Hermione Granger,

How may a young wizard who is shy approach a witch he fancies?

Are there certain steps or instructions you may know of that work? I ask you, and not your husband, Mr. Weasley, since you yourself stated that he has “…the emotional range of a teaspoon…”.

Dear Hermione,

I was sorted into Gryffindor not too long ago, and I’ve been made fun of by my fellow housemates for my study habits. I tend to answer every question asked in class and spend most of my time in the library. Although my marks are stellar, I’m feeling quite dejected and intellectually isolated. Snickers follow me in every class. I feel as though my peers don’t understand me at all. What should I do?

Dear Hermione Granger,

Why did you choose Ron instead of Harry? “The greatest wizard deserves the brightest witch..”

Dear Hermione Granger,

I’ve noticed that there are two types of students. The ones that are naturally smart and the ones that have to work hard to do well. I am the type that has to work hard yet I still have trouble in school. I always get A-‘s yet i get called things like bookworm and overachiever all the time. how can I become a better student? What can I do differently to achieve the best I can be?

Also what is your advice on how to find yourself? Sometimes I feel like I am being someone else. I don’t know who I really am and what I want to accomplish. Help?!?!

Dear Hermione Granger,

I recently found out that Hogwarts keeps house-elves. I will be returning there soon for my third year, and I am worried that I will make too much work for them. What can I do?
