When Harry Potter met Emma Watson on Halloween

This little blurb comes from a reader in New York City. Despite all that has gone on in new York this week there were still kids who wanted to go trick or treating and to wear their costumes. One five year old boy wore his costume and probably won't have any idea of what happened to him until he gets much older.

I will let the reader tell the story.

I wanted to tell you a nice celeb story about what happened to me last night while I was trick or treating with my kids and some friends of theirs.

One of the kids in the group, a five year old boy, was dressed up as Harry Potter, complete with matted hair, glasses, wand, etc. We were walking on East 78th Street which is a popular Halloween spot for NYC kids since all the town houses and apartments on the blocks between Park and 3rd Avenue go all out decorating for the holiday and load them up with candy.

Anyway amid the madness, the boy was walking along the street when a young woman came up to him and said, "Excuse me, are you Harry Potter?" After he mumbled out a yes, she said, "That's great, because I'm Hermonie Granger and we're best of friends" and she gave him a big hug.

Of course the boy was too young to realize that it was indeed Emma Watson, who couldn't have been nicer.

It could've been possible that the boy could've known who emma watson is. I mean at 5 i knew who michael jackson was.

He probably did, but he didn't know happened when hermoine granger came and introduced himself to him. Shy! I bet the parents were very happý. That is what I like about Emma, other that she is talented in so many different ways, she knows how to make other people happy.
