Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

 

"Harry thinks he is an ordinary boy, until he is rescued by a beetle-eyed size of a man, taken to Hogwarts school of Wizardry and Witchcraft, learns to play Quidditch and does battle in a deadly duel...The reason; Harry Potter is a wizard!"

That's the few words that stared this craze off. Almost every child knows about the Harry Potter books or has heard of this hero. For those who don't, this is basically the story.

 

In Chapter one

It all starts at Privet Drive, where The Dursleys see a cat sitting on the wall. Mr Dursley thinks nothing of it until lunchtime when he sees a group of people dressed in cloaks by the bakery whispering about the Potters. When he goes home he sees, and it doesn't improve his mind, the tabby cat he had seen earlier that day. he asks Mrs. Dursley if she had heard from her sister lately, as he expects, she answers 'no' and goes upstairs to bed. Mr Dursley comes up a few minutes later and drifts off into an uneasy sleep thinking, "It couldn't affect them", but how very wrong he was. 

Near midnight a man called Albus Dumbledore appeared near the Dursley's house and walks over to the cat. He turns and smiles at the cat but instead he was smiling at a rather severe-looking woman, 
Minerva McGonagall. Dumbledore Speaks to McGonagall for nearly an hour before any sign of movement occurs. at almost one in the morning they see a huge motorbike with a giant of a man called Hagrid sitting on it with a baby Harry in his arms. Dumbledore takes Harry in his arms and carry's him over to the Dursley's front door until about 10 minutes after staring at the baby, they all leave.

 

In Chapter two

Nearly ten years had passed since Harry was dropped off at his Aunt and Uncles. He has a dream about flying motorbikes until he is woken by his Aunt yelling at him to make the breakfast for Dudley. About an hour later, Mrs Dursley comes into the living room to tell Mr Dursley that Mrs Figg, the woman who Harry stays with when the Dursleys go out, has broken her foot and cannot take Harry. Dudley moans at this as he does not want Harry to come to the zoo. After an hour of arguing, Harry is stuck in the back of the Dursleys car on the way to the zoo.

When they get to the zoo they have a look at all the animals until Dudley asks if he can go to see the largest snake in the place. They go you have a look at the snake which does not move until Harry thinks it winked at him. A few minutes later, the Brazilian boa constrictor is escaping through the vanishing glass. 

In Chapter three

A few weeks later, Harry is asked to get the morning post, he goes to get it and there is a letter for him. he sits back down at the table and Mr Dursley sees that Harry has a letter, he takes it from Harry, rips it open, reads the first line and his face changes to the colour of gone-off porridge. Harry is sent to his cupboard. A few hours later, Mr Dursley goes to Harry's Cupboard and says that he can have Dudley's second bedroom. Everyday, more and more of the letters come until The Dursleys get sick of it, they all leave the house and go to a bed and breakfast for the night. In the morning, About 100 of the mysterious letters come and Mr Dursley leaves the B&B.

He caught the wand, and almost hit the ground when McGonagall came running out. She told him to follow her and he thought he was getting expelled. Instead, she went to a class room, called for someone and took them both to an empty classroom. She told Harry that this was Oliver Wood, the Captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team and they were looking for a seeker. Harry told Ron that he was to become a seeker when Malfoy came a round and told him to go to trophy room at midnight. He, Ron, Hermione and Neville went and waited for him to come. After a while they heard footsteps and hurried out. It was Augus Filch, the caretaker. They ran and ran until they got into another room.
