Harry Potter has never heard of Hogwarts when the letters start arriving at his home at Privet Drive, addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, and quickly confiscated by his aunt and uncle. On his eleventh birthday, Rubeus Hagrid, a giant of a man, reveals to Harry that he is a wizard and has a spot at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Thus begins Harry's incredible journey into the world of magic.
