Chapter 01

The Boy Who Lived

A

1,Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive,

2,were proud to say

3,that they were perfectly normal,

4,thank you very much.

5,They were the last people you'd expect

6,to be involved in

7,anything strange or mysterious,

8,because they just didn't hold with such nonsense.

B

1,Mr. Dursley was the director of a firm called Grunnings,

2,which made drills.

3,He was a big, beefy man

4,with hardly any neck,

5,although he did have a very large mustache.

6,Mrs. Dursley was thin and blonde

7,and had nearly twice the usual amount of neck,

8,which came in very useful

9,as she spent so much of her time

10,craning over garden fences,

11,spying on the neighbors.

12,The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley

13,and in their opinion

14,there was no finer boy anywhere.

C

1,The Dursleys had everything they wanted,

2,but they also had a secret,

3,and their greatest fear was

4,that somebody would discover it.

5,They didn't think they could bear it

6,if anyone found out about the Potters.

7,Mrs. Potter was Mrs. Dursley's sister,

8,but they hadn't met for several years;

9,in fact, Mrs. Dursley pretended

10,she didn't have a sister,

11,because her sister and her good-for-nothing husband

12,were as unDursleyish

13,as it was possible to be.

14,The Dursleys shuddered to think

15,what the neighbors would say

16,if the Potters arrived in the street.

17,The Dursleys knew

18,that the Potters had a small son, too,

19,but they had never even seen him.

20,This boy was another good reason

21,for keeping the Potters away;

22,they didn't want Dudley

23,mixing with a child like that.
