by J.K. Rowling
Harry Potter has spent ten miserable years with the Dursleys, sleeping in a cupboard and being told his parents died in a car crash. On his eleventh birthday, a giant named Hagrid breaks down the door and tells him the truth — he is a wizard, his parents were murdered by the most dangerous dark wizard in history, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
