Harry Potter

report

As soon as I watched the movie I just had to go out and by the books to Harry Potter. As well as i did some research on JK Rowlings.

First the story of Harry Potter starts that he is left in the care of the Dursleys his Aunt and Uncle when he was just a tyke because a very evil Wizard had killed his parents. As he grows up he is treated like a servent boy in there house he finds a letter in the mail addressed to him and oddly his aunt and uncle are in disbelieve and remove it from him. On Harry’s Eleventh birthday A wizard of the name Rubeus Hagrid comes to visit the Dursleys and Tells Harry he is a wizard and gives him the letter telling him he is to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and wizardry.
Well of course Harry is so excited and cant wait to get out of the Dursleys home. Harry also find out the true reason his parents died. He is a famous boy he finds out as he is getting his school supplies. And that no body will say the name of his worst enemy Lord Voldemort. As Harry gets on to the bus he meets Ron Weasley( Ron Weasley was based on a friend the JK Rowlings new as a child and has remained her best friend. Ron and Harry share a seat together cause all of the others were full. While still on the Train a girl comes down look for a toad that a boy in the other carts were looking for and introduces her self as Harmonie Granger ( JK Rowlings has drawn this character to resembler herself when she was a child). The get to Hogwarts and A young blond child comes up and introduces him self as Malfoy Dralcoy, He things that he can tell harry who to be friends with and who not to because he is famous and by half not as poor as he thought. As they are sorted in to there houses With the Sorting hat. There are four houses Griffendorf, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Sytherin. Malfoy is sorted into the slytherin house while Ron, Harry, And Harmonie are sorted into the Griffendorf house. During the rest of the book. Harry is introduced to Quiddich and becomes Griffendorfs seeker. But to find out what quiddich is and what happens in this book with Harry’s new adventure at hogwarts you need to read it.


JK Rowlings is a remarkable writer and in her Autobiography she speaks about her Harry Potter novels and how they first began and how many books she has written for This Series.
And talks about more on her site.

I had never read the books before the first movie was released, but I took my three nephews to see it (they were big fans of the books) and loved it. So that Christmas (the movie was released in November if I recall correctly) my nephews presented to me the boxed set of the books (the first three at that time). They are such good little boys.
