Natalie McDonald, a character from the book Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Natalie McDonald, a character from the book Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, was a nine-year-old girl living in Toronto, Canada. She suffered from leukemia and wrote a letter to J.K. Rowling asking what would happen in the upcoming books, as she didn’t have time to read them. Unfortunately, she passed away one day before receiving the author’s reply. In her honor, J.K. made Natalie a first-year student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, who was sorted into Gryffindor by the Sorting Hat. When J.K. went to Canada for a promotional tour of the books, she visited the girl’s family.
