When he was an infant, the evil Lord Voldemort killed his parents and then tried to kill Harry too. Harry also learns that, in the wizarding world, he’s a hero. A magical half-giant, Hagrid, informs Harry that he’s really a wizard, and will soon be attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry’s world gets turned upside down on his 11th birthday, however. Yes, he’s just about as miserable as you can get.
He’s forced to live in the cupboard under the stairs, forced to wear his cousin Dudley’s hand-me-down clothes, and forced to go to his neighbour’s house when the rest of the family is doing something fun. He’s shunned by his relatives, the Dursleys, who have raised him since he was an infant. Harry Potter is the most miserable, lonely boy you can imagine.
