#8: Elves and Eyes
In this episode you need to have read through CHAPTER FOUR (again!). There wasn't enough time last episode to go over Dobby so we'll be doing that today, focusing mainly on chapter two!
We'll be going over the symbolism of eyes and the folklore of elves, and what it means in the context of this chapter/book.
With the coronavirus pandemic going on, please don't hesitate to reach out to us for how we can be of service to you during this time. We know many are struggling and would love to be there for you in any way that we can.
