My #13 favorite moment from the Harry Potter series:
Charlie Weasley adopts Norbert!
Art by my favorite fan-artist, L. Berghol
Here's one not in the films. In fact, Charlie is the missing Weasley in the cinema, mentioned only by name here and there. In The Sorcerer's Stone, Harry and Hermione save Hagrid's hairy butt (not for the first time) by arranging for Charlie Weasley, the second eldest Weasley and dragon expert, to take Norbert off of Hogwart's property.
I love Charlie for that, and also, because he remains an uncorrupted character for me, the way he looks frozen in my imagination, and not altered by the films. The truth is, whenever I read the books now, I see Radcliffe, Watson, Grint and company, in my head. But Charlie is just my version of him. BTW, he's a total hottie in my mind:)

#13 In the movie (not the book, one of the many differences between the two) The Sorcer's Stone, when Harry and Draco gets paired up to go in search of the injured unicorn, Draco asks for Fang to come along with them. I love Hagrid's response. Jedi J
