back from holidays

So my Christmas was wiz-nift, I felt sorry for Ron and Marvolo and Malfoy stuck at school but mine were good. Padma, Mr Rosier gave me a lot of books, including some good history ones. Here I'll write out the titles:

Hogwarts: A History (Revised Updated Edition)
Fifteenth-Century Fiends
Great Wizarding Explorers and their Discoveries (this one is really good, I started reading it already)
Of the Blood: Italian Wizards of the Renaissance
Wizards of the Ancients (this one talks a lot about Egypt and has a chapter on parselmouths actually)

and then there's a set:
The Calm Before the Storm
Wizard War
The Dark Before the Dawn
Glorious New Morning

Thats all about the Lord Protector and the war back when He came to power -- well I mean the first one is about what they did before the war I think, and then theres one about the war, and then right after, and then the last I think is supposed to be modern history, its the thinnest of the four. Those have lots of photographs in them, Mr Rosier showed me one that had him in and I think Mr Malfoy is in there too. And Mrs Lestrange.

Anyway if you want to borrow any of them let me know, but I want to finish the wizard explorers one before I loan it to anybody.

Mr Rosier says he wants to find me a tutor for next summer that will work with me on magic instead of just grammar. So thats that's good.

Dean came to visit last week before New Year's and that was nift! I missed the rest of you though you'll have to tell me all about what you did on your holiday!
