Snatched away from his mundane existence by Hagrid, the giant grounds keeper for Hogwarts, Harry is thrown head-first into a magival world he never knew existed.
Famous for an incident that happened at his birth, which gave him a distinctive lightning-shaped scar, Harry makes friends easily at his new school.
