“Knew! Of course we knew! How could you not be, my dratted sister being what she was? Oh, she got a letter just like that and disappeared off to that — that school — and came home every vacation with her pockets full of frog spawn, turning teacups into rats. I was the only one who saw her for what she was — a freak! But for my mother and father, oh no, it was Lily this and Lily that, they were proud of having a witch in the family!” (HP&PS, Chapter Four) 
I don’t know how Lily’s pocket would be full of frog spawn, so I’m gonna take this as Lily used to have a pet frog/toad. No more Lily Evans with pretty and majestic pets like cats and owls, enter Lily Evans with a pet frog she named Tulip (after her favorite flower, of course). She loved that slimy animal with her whole soul.
No, you can’t change my mind about it.
It makes me so angry that the first letters Harry receives refer to where he lives, which is under the cupboard. So they knew he was being abused, they knew and they did nothing about it. How can people think Hogwarts was so great when he knowingly sends children to their abusive homes? Ugh.
Rereading Harry Potter.
I can’t sleep, so I decided to pick up the first book of the HP series because it’s been a minute since I’ve read them and…doesn’t wandering around in cloaks and calling non-magical people “muggles” to their faces, and openly talking about You-Know-Who’s defeat break the Statute of Secrecy? Boy oh boy, three pages in and I’m already finding plot holes.
