2. Does a character have to be successful in order to be a hero? Explain your answer.
3. Choose one other character besides Potter who you might call a hero/heroine and explain why you choose that person.

1. Compare/contrast the characters of John and Sam. How are they similar? How are they different? Is there a flaw in each of their personalities? Be specific and give examples.
