Story Material: Poor Ron.

Char wore a Hermione Granger shirt on the first day of school. It's hard to see under her tie. 


Charlotte saw another girl wearing this shirt when we on vacation in January. She told me how funny the design was,"Dad, it's like, 'HERMIONE!'," Char snapped out an imaginary wand, "In action!" Char liked that Mrs. Norris the cat and Mrs. Mcgonagall were included. "But why was Professor Lockhart even on there? That's hilarious!"

We searched Google images when we got home, and found the shirt for sale on Kohls.com. Here's the whole Hermione design. 


Kohls sells other Potter character tees in the same style, and we wanted to see what they looked like.

For his shirt, Harry stands defiantly with the Sword of Gryffindor on his shoulder and with Hagrid and Professor Dumbledore at his back. A worried Dobby is there, too.


Draco is looking menacing while his dad, Crabbe and Goyle, and Professor Snape all lear at us for being muggles. Even the Hand of Glory mocks us.


Now let's see Ron's design. What?! The other shirts make their characters look cool. How come Ron has to make the ewww-face while wearing earmuffs? Hermione waves a wand, Harry has a sword, Draco holds his Nimbus 2001, and Ron is stuck clutching a crying mandrake? Ginny looks embarrassed for him, and Fred and George aren't supportive. They can't believe they're stuck on a Ron shirt. Instead of the flying car he flew to school, Ron gets the Howler his mum wrote. 

This is no shirt for a guy who chases down Hermione's attackers, "Hey! That's my girlfriend, you numpties!"


Even Neville got a design that makes him look tough.


Poor Ron. That's no way to treat a mate.
