Alas, dear author, I have some minor issues. Not flames, but critiques. Its too late to change the story, as its already probably finished- BUT a review isnt a review if I cannot be honest. If restricted to being ONLY positive, it is merely flattery.

That said, its good.
I like a smart harry and a pranky hermione. They seem to get things their way a little too easy for narrative tension to really be there, but I kinda understand that your re-doing their lifes how you would have liked them to be- enjoyable and successfull. That doesnt mean that other things can be ignored though..

The first chapter or two annoyed me, as your 4-10 year olds seemed far to intelligent and good at communication. The fact that they said "mean" instead of hurtfull or spitefull doesnt negate that they usually used proper sentences, and waited for people to stop talking, etc.
At school however, their current language seems appropriate, if a little mature. Never forget that theyre only 11 yrs old!

Sadly, you cheapened Legilimency and Occlumency hugely. Everyone knew about it, whereas in canon its a specialised, obscure and relatively unknown branch of magic- even for adults. And then you made everyone learn how to do occlumency, which just made it "common". Its a speciality- its a rarity- its damned hard and whilst canon-harry is disadvantaged by snape- canon harry is also tremdously strong willed and talented. Not everyone should be able to just pick it up.

Finally, you portrayed legilimency as mind-rape, but overlooked the fact that "reading" someones eyes is one of the oldest forms of communication. Legilimency is primarily about discerning emotions and intentions- it only becomes truly invasive with the incantation "legilimens". I understand that Voldemorts use of it is horrible- but hes Voldemort- he makes everything horrible. Dumbledore doesnt push on minds- he X-rays them.
Benevolently! Finally, and I'll have to accept your prerogative in grossly misrepresenting Dumbledore and distorting/multiplying/expanding the petty nastyness of Snape- But it makes me dislike a fic that I might otherwise enjoy.
I hope that you were "big" enough to read this. If you have then, congradulations- you can accept the existence of critism. Thats important. And good
(also something that Dumbledore DOES do, gosh!)

Interesting ending. Speaking with Lily instead of Albus was a good springboard (especially since Albus isn't dead, yet.)

Looking forward to the continuation of the story, Should be a very interesting staff meeting once everyone gets back to jolly old england.

Really nice job on this fanfic. It was a well written and different twist on the storyline that I enjoyed very much and I'm looking forward to the next sequel.

Thanks for writing.

It was an excellent story and I look forward to the sequel in the near future

Loved this story from the very begining. This chapter rounds it off nicely. It was very well written. I can't wait for the sequel, if this story is anything to go by, the sequel will be just as a good. I don't envy the task you've got before you with the sequel as you've set the bar quite high. No pressure

Interesting ending. I hope this time since Harry has adult allies he can sue the Daily Prophet for liable if they go on a smear campaign against him. I'm kinda disappointed that we didn't get to see Harry's escape complete with the transformation, but I can understand why you wouldn't want to reenact it. However, how Tom managed to follow would help. Also making an international incident if Umbridge tries her quill might help.

Pretty good chapter---you followed canon while putting a very different spin on things. I like your Harry McGonagall better, in some ways, than canon-Harry, but I think part of that is that Harry M. is a lot better-adjusted...no Dursley upbringing would just about guarantee that.

witowsmp,

_Thank_you_! for a wonderful story, well told. One of the things I like best about fan fiction is the great variety on the familiar theme. This one is H/Hr (of course, being on Portkey!), but that is far and away my favorite 'ship. I can stand most of the others _except_ the canon trainwreck of HP/GW, which makes me hurl.

I enjoyed your OCs and the idea of the hoverboard was terrific. I hope you keep on writing, because I plan to keep on reading--but the pickings will be much slimmer if you aren't contributing to the offerings.

Thanks again, and may you enjoy every success in your life and your writing career.

Well I know I will be looking for the Sequel.
this so good to read and I am looking for the next chapter of your other story's too.
Like ( The Time Meddlers) and ( Harry Potter and the Muggle-born Uprising).
But till then have a real good week and weekend.

Interesting way to finish off the story, I can honestly say that I did not see that one coming. Can't wait to read the sequel, I really want to know what happens next to Harry Potter-McGonagall!

Oh my gosh! That was fantastic! Wonderful and exciting!
I love how you had Voldemort appear with Harry back at Beaubatons. So different and perfect.
I can't wait til the new series.

so sad that this story has to end, but i will definitely read the sequel to this. anyways, will the sequel cover books 1-5? just wondering, but did voldemort actually die? because in the story, Lily said that the horcruxes are still being looked for and destroyed. Really great job, keep up the nice work.

WOW! This is very good. sorry that my review is short but i will write a longer one for the next chapter.

That was an exciting chapter. It all seems extemely dangerous. More soon please.

I Have to say after reading through all 37 chapters of this story i am simply waiting for more. Your take on the story keeps true to some of the story line as dictated by JK but not so much as to make it bland i can honestly say that this is one of my favorite fan-fics.
