The Dursley's were a perfectly normal family. Mr. Dursley was big and beefy, while Mrs. Dursley was a tall, thin woman, their son Dudley was in the Dursley's opinion the best boy. Mrs. Dursley greatly disapproved of her sister and her husband, the Potter's. Mrs. Dursley pretended she didn't have a sister. The Dursley's didn't want their son to meet the Potter's son. The Potter's were anything but normal. On a gray Tuesday, Mr. Dursley was on his way to work when he saw several strange things.

The Sorting Hat of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter The Sorcerer’s Stone sings to the students attending Hogwarts in Harry’s first year, “There’s nothing hidden in our head the Sorting Hat can’t see, so try me on and I will tell you where you ought to be. […] You might belong in Hufflepuff, where they are just and loyal, those patient Hufflepuffs are trues and unafraid of toil” (118). This magical hat looks into each student’s minds, putting him or her into the best fitting house for their own personality. If placed into the alternate universe of Harry Potter, Haimon would be placed into Hufflepuff because each the characteristics of the house are quite evident inside the prince of Thebes. In Sophocles’ tragic play, Antigone, Haimon is a loyal individual, faithful to his commitments and will stick with them, which is portrayed through his loyalty to his father, Creon, justice, and Antigone, his fiancé.
“The teacher’s desk was supplied with drawers, in which were stored books and other et ceteras of the profession. The children observed Nig very busy there one morning before school, as they flitted in occasionally from their play outside. The master came: called the children to order; opened a drawer to take a book the occasion required; when out poured a volume of smoke. “Fire! Fire!” screamed he, at the top of his voice. By the time he had been sufficiently acquainted with the peculiar odor, to know he was imposed upon. The scholars shouted in laughter to see the terror of the dupe, who, feeling abashed at the needless fright, made no very strict investigation, and Nig once more escaped punishment. She had provided herself with cigars, and puffing, puffing away at the crack of the drawer, had filled it with smoke, and then closed it tightly to deceive the teacher, and amuse the scholars. The interim of terms was filled up with a variety of duties new and peculiar. At home, no matter how powerful the heat when sent to rake hay or guard the grazing herd, she was never permitted to shield her skin from the sun. She was not many shades darker than Mary now; what a calamity it would be ever to hear the contrast spoken of. Mrs.Bellmont was determined the sun should have full power to darken the shade which nature had first bestowed upon her as best befitting.
He reportedly dies of Appendicitis after a fan took his offer to punch him in the gut, and punched him harder than they probably should have. Most people, however believe that the fan did it on purpose, knowing that Harry was sick. He had been feeling bad that day, according to his colleges and wife. After he escaped from his chinese water torture cell, he collapsed and was sent to the hospital. His appendix ruptured and he tragically died in 1926.
As the train is going along, it suddenly came to a complete stop when a Dementor (a prison guard from Azkaban prison, who looks scary) boards the train to do a sweep of the train to make sure the prisoner is on. When Harry first saw a Dementor, he had passed out. He then wakes up later when the train is moving and the professor wants him to eat some chocolate. When they get to the school, they ride on a horse driven carriage that takes them to the school from the train. Harry and his friends are soon walking into the Great Hall for a banquet dinner and a presentation on the start of the school year. After the presentation, they go up to their towers where they will sleep. The next morning, they meet in the Great Room for breakfast. After breakfast, they go to all of their classes. There was one class that harry had where they were looking into the tea mugs that told them what animal that they had. Harry had the Grim (the Grim is the animal for death), the whole class was in
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a book about a boy named Harry Potter who is a wizard. Its setting is in London, which is where Harry lives. The time element is supposed to be present day, but it is a fiction book.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.
Now to get to the Prisoner of Azkaban. Harry Potter is back for the summer at the Dursley’s home. The Dursley’s are his mother’s sister, and that family detests Harry in every way possible. They keep him locked up in a cupboard in the basement, taking his owl (used for delivering mail etc.). his wand, and his trunk of spell books and everything else he could use to do any bit of magic.
Everyone was trying diligently to help Harry because they believed him. Harry also would not put that much strain on his body unless he knew for a fact there was a krait under his sheets. Timber talks about how “The smell of chloroform was awful” (344). The 3 of them would not bare the oppressive smell of chloroform for no reason. They all believed a krait was under the sheets. The snake also probably slithered of at this time. Timber also says “Don’t you listen to Harry; this whole thing has him so he doesn’t know what hes saying” (346). Harry was obviously stressed and embarrassed after the snake had just disappeared because he knew he had seen a krait. Everybody’s strain may have been great, but in the end the krait was no longer under Harry’s
“And it was the middle of the night when there was no wind and there had been no rain for a long time…” (Kincaid 4.61) Mr. Potter’s life begins in stark contrast to the opening of the book. When demonstrating Mr. Potter’s routine life, Jamaica Kincaid portrays “the sun…in its usual place, up above and in the middle of the sky…” (Kincaid 1.3) but she chose a very different setting for Mr. Potter’s birth. Instead of being born into a sun so bright it made “even the shadows pale” (Kincaid 1.3), Mr. Potter was born into darkness. This darkness, in fact, marked the beginning of his life and continued until his mother walked into the sea. “The water was thick and blank (it was a form of darkness)” (Kincaid 4.71). Although the book incorporates many repetitions of the line about the sun being in its usual place, up above and in the middle of the sky, this chapter emerges in darkness.
...g Harry and Voldomort circling around each other in the middle. Harry explained to Voldomort that if he fought with Harry he would lose. But Voldomort didn’t listen to what Harry said, and the moment he cast his spell it rebounded on him and he was killed. After the dead had been buried and the injured treated, all was well and the entire wizarding world was at peace.
This fantastic story starts off with Harry, a young wizard who has just turned 13. Harry arrives at Diagon Alley, a place where only wizards are allowed to be. Harry stays at Diagon Alley until school starts. Right before departing for Hogwarts, Harry learns that a fugitive from Azkaban, a prison for wizards, with the name of Sirius Black, a convicted murderer, and it’s believed that he wants to kill Harry. Later on, Ron keeps bugging Hermione about her cat, Crookshanks about eating his pet rat named Scabbers.
Which then makes the audience think about what they witnessed through out the film. The hotel room with blood dripping maybe that did actually happen. That could have been when he was murdering her. Harry did not realize he was the murder until later on, we were seeing this story through his view point in some ways. The audience was following him.
''We have to leave now.'' Hermione cried out and cast a confrigo to the door and another spell of her creation to Voldemort and his death eaters. The Order find the chance to leave then. They took their portkey and returned back to Hogwarts before Voldemort and his followers could move again.
Harry Potter starts off slow, but gets very interesting near the end. In the beginning, you meet the Dursleys, Harry’s aunt, uncle, and their son Dudley. Then you learn that Harry’s parents were witches, and that they were destroyed by a evil wizard. A good witch, Albus Dumbeldoor, sends Harry to the Dursleys, because they’re his only remaining family. The Dursleys however, hated Harry and his family, so Harry was mistreated for years. He was forced to live in a cuborrod under the stairs. He had to watch as the fat, stuck up Dudley got whatever he wanted, and then usually broke whatever it was he got. Then one day Harry got a letter.
