intro': rowling wrote an AMAZING story, created a wonderful world with dangerous adventures. i cannot do better but i can write a summary and add a bit of fan fiction. this time chapter by chapter
ONE: The Dursely family had a lone young son, named dudley. mrs. dursley, a blond named petunia, pretended that she did not have a sister. on a usual morning, Mr. Dursely, named vernon, who kept a mustache, started driving to his job. that was when he could not believe his eyes. he saw a cat reading a map? impossible!
At work's break, he heard people talking about the potters, his wife's sister's family. after work he bumped into a man dressed oddly in a violet cloak. the guy spoke in unintelligible words like some nut, "dont be sorry. nothing could upset me today. you-know who is gone!" but he did not know who. He went home, and asked petunia about her sister so she was very annoyed. vernon wondered if the cloak guy had anything to do with his sister in laws "kind".
near midnight, on an empty corner, a man suddenly appeared. he was wearing long robes under a purple cloak. he flicked open a metal cigaret lighter and clicked. each click the light of a lamp vanished. in the darkness he sat by a cat that was now a lady, wearing an emerald green cloak. she also said "you know who has disappeared, after killing the potter family. only their son lived". the man, named albus dumbledor, replied that he arranged to bring that child harry to his relatives the dursleys.
they heard a roaring engine overhead. a motor bike fell from the sky. a giant rode it and sobbed about the potter's deaths. he laid harry on the doorstep. dum' clicked the darker once, so the balls of light flew back to the street lamps. in the morning petunia found harry on the doorstep. and ten years passed as harry's eleventh birthday neared.
ANALYSIS: the conversations here were mysterious and intended as a hook to cause curiosity to continue but it can be a turn off due to so much without a story so it can be a turnoff of uninteligible talk. even the cool magic which was wonderful was distracted by vague phrases that contained a story in broken bits.
finally a boy on a doorstep from midnight to morning can only be a true documentary because an imaginary story they would put the baby in the house. despite this one event that was real most of the chapter was fiction except the stuff both in the video and the book.
FAN FICTION: i could not write a better story but i can be a hindsight critic. do not introduce magic motorbikes so soon. it is great but not in the first chapter with so much stuff that is hard to understand and not even mentioning it was enchanted.
chapter one: "at midnight, the dursley parents heard a baby crying, so they went to check on their son dudley. in his room they found he and a second child were crying. in shock they read a note: "Harry is your relative. his parents died, tonight, so he is your responsibility now." ma said, "we should bring the orphan to an orphangae." pa said "he will do chores" so they raised harry for ten years. chapter two."
analysis: this would tell the dursley perspective. harry indoors with a brief mention of his parent's death without introducing magic yet nor contrasting the usual world with mysterious rejoicing and avoiding the mysterious talk, replaced by common conversation.
TWO: summary: Harry liked his scar and recalled that he had asked how he got his thin-lightening-shape-scar so they said in a car crash. harry experienced mysterious unexplainable stuff. he would get a hair cut at a barber, and same as previous haircuts, as soon as he got home it was long again. aunt had cut his hair very short, but by morning it was long again.
they went too a zoo. there harry looked at a snake until cousin d punched him down. harry hurt from the punch and the hard concrete. d' was leaning on the glass when it stopped existing so he jumped back as the snake escaped and thanked harry "thanksssss."
later harry got mail but before he could read it uncle took it away. more letters came for him so uncle burnt them. he even chhanged harry room and moved the family to different places to avoid the letters. on a distant isle, a giant man, named r.h. came. he told harry, "you are a wizard... your parents got murdered by an evil wizard."
h' led harry to the place to but magical items. it was in london [72]. the magicaly passed through a wall. in a bank harry rode the roller railway and got some money from his inheritance. hagrid got a small specially protected package. h' bought an owl for harry before harry bought his wand.wands were made using magical creatures. one of the wands responded by shooting red and gold sparks. harry learnt that the wand chooses the wizard and that his wand was from the same phoenix used in voldemorts wand.
FAN FICTION: when harry entered the wand shop a box jumped off a shelf and fell away freeing a wand which flew to harry.... chose him.
uncle drove harry to the train station where he met the weasly family. harry rode the train with ron. they shared treats while ron told harry about his brothers. harry rode magic-mover boats on lake between the train station and the school castle. a wizard cap explained the characteristics of students for the 4 houses. it assigned harry with his new friend ron and a girl named hermiy-oni. they ate a generous feast before going to the dorm to sleep.
later hagrid invited harry to visit. when he visited he heard about a break in at the wizard bank. the same day he had gone there with h. at school harry studied various magical subjects, including broom flying. nevil's broom went wild causing nevil to fall and get injured. his sphere fell. d. malfoy stole it and wanted to hide it like a jerk. harry chased draco who threw it. harry flew and caught it skillfully. malfoy challenged harry to a duel so harry went at night ignoring protests from hermione. he and his pals almost got caught. they fled until finding a giant dog with 3 heads and jaws.
on halloween, harry got a gift broom and learned about quiditch. a troll was found in the dungeon. harry and ron went to find hermione and saw the troll attacking her. harry jumped on the troll [188] and ron used a charm to save harry from the club that jumped up and then fall on the trolls head ending the threat. FAN FICTION: hermione who had succeeded at leviosa first, used it to disarm the troll. it jumped up... harry and ron entered and saw the troll look up when the huge club crashed down on its head. ron would save harry later not save hermione now she can save herself. ENDNOTE: half of 331 pages is 165 so at end of chapter 10 page 192 end part one of summary.
conclusion: the title stone refers to a red stone. people tried to get it but was safely in a mirror until harry took it out. then it was almost stolen, until harry mysteriously burnt quirrels face. preventing the theft of the stone. harry the hero.
