Chapter 1

Owl mail

Harry Potter is an unusual boy in every way. Firstly, he cannot stand the summer holidays, and secondly, he likes to make lessons in the summer, but he is engaged in the night when everyone is sleeping. And most importantly, Harry Potter is a wizard.

It was already after full. Harry was lying on his stomach, hiding his head with a blanket. In one hand there is a flashlight, and on the pillow - an old fat book in the leather binding "History of Magic" Batilda Bagshot. Having moved his eyebrows, Harry drove along the lines with an eagle feather, he was looking for a suitable quote for an essay on the topic: "Is it sense to burn witches in the XIV century?" The feather lingered on the first line of the paragraph. Yeah, it seems, what is needed. Harry straightened the glasses of the nanosa, brought the flashlight to the page and read:

In the Middle Ages, people in whose veins there are no magical blood (better known as Muggles or Prostri), were very afraid of witchcraft, but did not know how to distinguish real witches and sorcerers. Sometimes they still managed to catch a wizard, but the simpletons did not know that the fire was not terrible to the wizards: they knew how to freeze fire and pretend that they were very painful. In fact, they did not experience pain, but only a pleasant tingling around the body and a warm breath of air. So, Wendelina strange loved to “burn” at the stake. And in order to experience it with an incomparable pleasure, forty -seven times changed her guise and betrayed herself in the hands of maglles.

Harry took the pen in his teeth and climbed under the pillow behind the inkwell and parchment. Carefully opening the jar, dipped the pen and began to write. From time to time, he listened: what if one of the Dursleys will take a look at the toilet? They will also hear the creak of the pen! Then Harry will be locked in the closet until the end of summer under the stairs.

Durvy - the only relatives of Harry. They live on Tisova Street, in house number 4. Harry spends their summer holidays with them, and this time is for him. Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia and their son Dudley - Muggles to the brain of bones, are afraid of no less than the people of the Middle Ages. And the dead parents of Harry were real wizards, and therefore their name in the house is banned, and Harry himself did not live sweetly until recently.

If the boy is sternly treated, not to make concessions, then, you see, he will lose his magic, Dursley thought. But, no matter how you try, you won’t make a prostate out of the wizard. Dursleys were in horror: God do not bring, if anyone finds out that their nephew is studying at the Hogwarts School and Magic School! What a shame for a respectable family! Therefore, when Harry arrived on vacation, all his magical accessories (textbooks, a wand, a boiler and a broom) were sent to the closet under the stairs. They also forbade him to talk with his neighbors.

Harry was talking about Harry's neighbors, so it doesn’t matter. But even without textbooks, even cry. During the holidays, so much set and all the tasks are so difficult! One job on reducing potions is worth it! Professor Severus Snagg asked her, but he cannot stand Harry. Get back to Harry to school without this work, he certainly is not to do. After lessons, it will be necessary to take the classes for a month, but not with magic, but with your own hands. So, by all means it is necessary to get textbooks! And such a case soon introduced himself.

At the very beginning of the holidays, Uncle Verny bought a new car, and the whole family went to the garden - to admire the purchase. Their joyful exclamations spread throughout Tisova street: let the neighbors know what a wonderful car they have!

Harry at that moment went downstairs, opened a lock in the closet and took out several books from the suitcase.

“Now the main thing is not to slap the sheet with ink,” he sighed in relief in his room, “it is not that Dursley will guess that I study magic at night.”

But now Harry’s soul is restless. He is afraid to angry aunt with his uncle. They are already very angry with him, because Ron recently called him, who, like Harry, is a real wizard.

Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger are Harry's best friends. Ron grew up in a family of wizards and knows as many interesting things that Harry has no idea about. But on the phone, Ron never said. And, missing, he decided in
