Og så er endelig dagen her, og vi åpner den aller siste luka i kalenderen. Her finner vi noe som etter min mening er en riktig godbit: Et utdrag fra den aller første boka om Harry Potter.
‘Happy Christmas,’ said Ron sleepily as Harry scrambled out of bed and pulled on his dressing-gown.
‘You too,’ said Harry. ‘Will you look at this? I’ve got some presents!’
‘What did you expect, turnips?’ said Ron, turning to his own pile, which was a lot bigger than Harry’s.
Harry picked up the top parcel. It was wrapped in thick brown paper and scrawled across it was To Harry, from Hagrid. Inside was a roughly cut wooden flute. Hagrid had obviously whittled it himself. Harry blew it – it sounded a bit like an owl.
A second, a very small parcel contained a note.
We received your message and enclose your Christmas present. From Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia. Sellotaped to the note was a fifty-pence piece.
‘That’s friendly,’ said Harry.
Ron was fascinated by the fifty pence.
‘Weired!‘ he said. ‘What a shape! This is money?’
‘You can keep it,’ said Harry, laughing at how pleased Ron was.
Fra Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone av J. K. Rowling.
Og mens vi er inne på Harry Potter, vil jeg gjerne dele denne med dere:

Og med dette gjenstår det bare for meg å ønske dere
I lige måde Elin! Gleder meg til å høre hvordan livet som barne- og ungdomsbibliotekar i höga nord vil arte seg, for jeg regner jo med at noe av dette også vil gjenspeile seg i bloggen!
