| Harry Potter is 13 in the third addition to J.K Rowling's Harry Potter series.
After Harry's Aunt Marge comes to visit the Dursleys' house, she makes Harry so mad that he accidently blows her up like a balloon. Harry feels that he must run away, so after a sickening ride on the Knight Bus, he plans on going to the Leaky Cauldron. Instead, the Prime Minister of the Wizarding world (Cornelius Fudge) intercepts Harry. Fudge drops all charges on Harry and a short while later meets up with his friends, where he learns that a notorious murder named Sirius Black, wants him dead. Once at school, Harry and his classmates find dementors floating around the school. After getting close to Professor Lupin and learning a charm that will fend off the dementors, Harry finds out from a map that Fred and George Weasley give him, that Peter Pettigrue wasnt murdered by Sirius Black after all. | ||
