Phân tích sửa
Natalie McDonald is the only real-world character to appear in the Harry Potter series. A family friend had written to ask what was going to happen in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, because Natalie, then 9 years old, was dying of leukemia and was not expected to survive the 11 months until the publication date. Due to a breakdown in communications, the author did not receive the request until the day after Natalie had passed. However, a friendship between the McDonald family and the author did result, and the author added this character to the book in Natalie's honor.
