Book Excerpt for the Day


    “What’s going to happen to Winky?” said Hermione, the moment they had left the clearing.

    “I don’t know,” said Mr. Weasley.

    “The way they were treating her!” said Hermione furiously.  “Mr. Diggory, calling her ‘elf’ all the time … and Mr. Crouch!  He knows she didn’t do it and he’s still going to sack her!  He didn’t care how frightened she’d been, or how upset she was – it was like she wasn’t even human!”

    “Well, she’s not,” said Ron.

    Hermione rounded on him.
