Plot Outline: An ordinary boy mistreated and neglected, or so he thought. For the first ten years of his life, he's been living in the cupboard under the stairs, under the watchful eyes of the Dursleys. The family who he lives with, the family who despise him. After receiving many letters, and so many of those being ignored, gamekeeper Hagrid, of Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft And Wizardry comes to give Harry Potter his letter, inviting him to join the school. Harry soon learns more about his past, the truth about how his parents were killed, but he also makes friends, studies magic and gets up to mischief. He confronts three headed dogs, battles trolls and gets to fly a broomstick. Harry learns that there's another world, and its full of magic and fantasy.
