Very nice choices....yes, the charme of the books that there are so many of them!
But the Christmas scene is one, I had not on my list - and reading your explanation I do know why: my parents were teachers, my father at my high school - so my teachers very often were very good friends of his, coming to our house for many social occasions.... quite a strange situation for me as (often) their student; being a lot like Hermione in the first place I really was considered "teachers' pet", and I tended to see everything through their eyes instead from the students' point of view.... This resulted in my absolute refusal to consider teaching as a profession *LOL*.
