harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban by j.k. rowling chapter one owl post harry potter was a highly unusual boy in many ways. for one thing, he hated the summer holidays more than any other time of year. for another, he really wanted to do his homework but was forced to do it in secret, in the dead of night. and he also happened to be a wizard. it was nearly midnight, and he was lying on his stomach in bed, the blankets drawn right over his head like a tent, a flashlight in one hand and a large leather-bound book (a history of magic by bathilda bagshot) propped open against the pillow. harry moved the tip of his eagle-feather quill down the page, frowning as he looked for something that would help him write his essay, ‘witch burning in the fourteenth century was completely pointless — discuss.’ the …

, was the reason that harry never enjoyed his summer holidays. uncle vernon, aunt petunia, and their son, dudley, were harry’s only living relatives. they were muggles, and they had a very medieval attitude toward magic. harry’s dead parents, who had been a witch and wizard themselves, were never mentioned under the dursleys’ roof. for years, aunt petunia and uncle vernon had hoped that if they kept harry as downtrodden as possible, they would be able to squash the magic out of him. to their fury, they had not been unsuccessful. these days they lived in terror of anyone finding out that harry had spent most of the last two years at hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. the most they could do, however, was to lock away harry’s spell books, wand, cauldron, and broomstick at the start of the summer break, and forbid him to talk to the neighbors. …

st one. there was just one very small improvement — after swearing that he wouldn’t use her to send letters to any of his friends, harry had been allowed to let his owl, hedwig, out at night. uncle vernon had given in because of the racket hedwig made if she was locked in her cage all the time. harry finished writing about wendelin the weird and paused to listen again. the silence in the dark house was broken only by the distant, grunting snores of his enormous cousin, dudley. it must be very late, harry thought. his eyes were itching with tiredness. perhaps he’d finish this essay tomorrow night… he replaced the top of the ink bottle; pulled an old pillowcase from under his bed; put the flashlight, a history of magic, his essay, quill, and ink inside it; got out of bed; and hid the lot under a loose …
