Very unusual and charming -- the visuals play off the words nicely, I love the sharp pointed little faces, the school uniforms with the house badges, and the lively little green shoots and vines that (I'm sure) are about to bind them together. Harry getting rained on is just too cute for words. Taken altogether, this makes me think of two well-known quotes: "Hope springs eternal" and "The greatest of these is love."
