It all started with a letter from Minerva McGonagall, the Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, asking if Estelle Beauregard would like to be the new Astronomy Professor. Who wouldn't say yes? So, Estelle Beauregard, a witch from America and her older brother by half a minute accepted the letter and began their new lives at Hogwarts anxiously.
