Info
Harry potter is the name of a collection on 7 books written by J.K.Rowling. There mostly about Harry and his friends( and enemys.) they got magical powers and almost all the books is mostly at the school for magic ''Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry'' the ''point'' of the books is mainly Harry (the good one) fighting Voldemort (evil one). Voldemort is the wizard that killed Harry's parents.Oversatt til norsk av Torstein Bugge Høverstad.

 

Most of these books are made into movies, 1-5 is done they are filming the 6th one at the moment.

 

Harry grew up with his only living relatives beliving that his parents died in a car crash. His relatives treated him very badly for 11 years, when he became 11 he got a letter. He had never recived a letter before so he was about to open it when his cousin ripped it out of his hands and yelling «dad dad Harry's got a letter». When his uncle Vernon read it he had a wierd exspression, and told Harry and Dudley to leave the room.


 

Next morning there came more letters but Vernon got them first and burned them in the fireplase. Some days later it burst letters from all directions in the house, but Harry didnt catch a single one. Vernon gave the family 5 minutes to pack, and then they were all sitting in the car driving like mad. They changed directions once in a while and Vernon grunted «shake em off». When Vernon was happy in the end after several hours, they stopped with a lake. Vernon came happely back to the car from a guy and said that they was allowed to borrow a hut out on the sea.

 

They even got to borrow a tiny old boat to get there. The hut was small and cold, mostly made of rocks. Harry had to sleep on the hard rock floor, and Dudley slept on the sofa. Vernon and aunt Petunia slept upstears.

 

In the dead of night Harry was watching Dudleys clock and wait for his birthday. When the clock was 12 in the night, he heard a load BANG. This seemed to wake up the dursley's, and the door fell down to the floor a giant man was standing there. Vernon said in a scared voice «im armed, you are warned». The man came in and said «sorry about the door.» then he put the door back up. Later on he sat down in the sofa and tell Harry that he was a wizard and that there is a school for him and many others. Harry get shocked by the news and said «but i cant be a wizard.» And then Vernon step in and says «that's enough do not tell him anymore, i forbid you.» Hagrid give Harry a new letter and let him read it.

 

He get to know how his parents died and how he got his scar. For all this year his aunt and uncle had told him that they had died in a car crash. But they were acually murdered by one of the darkest wizard in the world. But when ''Voldemort'' tried to kill Harry his curse got shot back at himself and he disappeard for 11 years or so.

Hagrid to Harry to the Diagon Alley a wizard shop street, to buy his school equipment. Hagrid give him his ticket and leaves.

 

Uncle Vernon drove him to the train station. Vernon was laughting hard when he heard that Harry's platform was Platform nine and three-quarters, he have a hard time finding the platform before he heard a woman say «this plase is crawling with muggles.» And Harry got help from the woman and her many children to get to the platform

 

(all red haired.) The youngest boy came to sit with harry his name is Ron Weasley witch would become Harry's best friend later in his year. Ron told Harry about the wizarding comunity and sports and such.

When they got to Hogwarts they heard that they would be sorted into houses, when they entered the great hall they stod in a croud and they got called up on a chair by names. Harry was worried about this becuse he did'nt want to come in slitherin (the house where all the wizards that had turned bad were in.) when the sorting hat was on his head he said not slitherin, not slitherin. Not slitherin ey? Better be.....Griffindor!

His year at Hogwarts were exsiting, he learned to play quidditch a wizard sport played on broomstick's he got real good and became Griffindor's youngest seeker in a century.

 

Harry's potion teacher Snape is acting wierd against Harry as if he hated him. When his first match agains slitherin Harry's broom start acting strange and goes wild. Ron and Hermione noticed this and looked up at Snape. He was staring at Harry and muttering some words, Hermione ran up to the teachers box and turned snapes cloak on fire, when he noticed this, his eye contact got broken and Harry manages to get back up on his broom. Harry win the game, and wins like 50 points to the griffindor housecup.

One night when he and Ron, Hermione was out walking at night time they got spotted by Filch's cat and ran for it. They ended up in the forbidden corrior at the third floor. They got shocked when they met a three headed dog. They ran back to the griffingdor tower and went straight to bed. When they let it slip to Hagrid about the dog, he said it was his and that Dumbledore borrowed it to guard the.... and then he said «I shouldn't have said that.» later on, he let it slip that they had nothing to do with it and that is was betwen proffessor Dumbledore and Nicolas Flamel.

They was looking for him a long time in the libary, when Harry remember he had read the name on a chocklate frog card. Hermione found the answer in seconds.

They found out Dumbledore had left the school then decided that they would have to save the philosopher's stone alone. They go down under the locked lem and went on to save the stone. Now i wont tell you more becuse i dont want to ruin the book for you completly.

Author: J.K. Rowling

Here I'll tell you about the main characters

Harry Potter:
He is tall and thin, and he’s got a scar shaped like a bolt of lightning. He's well the person all the books are written about, hes heroic and wants to help others, lost his parents when he was a baby. Hes loyal to his friends, good in quidditch. Hes brave and not to inteligent, he's not dumb either tho.

 

Ron Weasley:
He is also kinda tall but not as thin as Harry, and have red hair. True friend of Harry, good at chess gets scared for creepy things. Makes people laugh with his funny acts. ''Not the sharpest knife in the drawer''.

Hermione Granger:
She's thin and have brown hair. Brilliant and smart. She always helps Harry with her magical powers in difficult situations. She is the teacher's angel and is really good at school.

 

Voldemort (also known as: Tom Riddle, and ''He who must not be named'':
His look is diffrent in all the books and i dont really know how he looked when he was at large. Becuse you see he dont got a body in this book and that makes it kinda hard to exsplain how he look. One of the darkest wizards of all time. Wants to kill all muggleborns, and only have ''Pure bloods'' left. Wants to have power and rule everyone. Only afraid of one person called ''Albus Dumbledore''. The one who tried to kill all the Potters but did not mannage to kill Harry. He's not brave or belive that there is no worse punishment then death. He dont think love is the strongest magical power like Dumbledore.

Ablbus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore:
Albus Dumbledore is the Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot. He is considered to be the leader of the good guys . Albus Dumbledore is the only wizard that Voldemort is afraid of. appearance: Used to have auburn hair, now long silver hair, blue eyes, long crooked nose, half-moon glasses, and a long beard. Tall and thin. Would like a pair of woolen socks for christmas.
