chapter 12-the patronus

Alright so Harry has to learn how to produce a Patronus charm before his next Quidditch match to keep Dementors away, He's doing really good considering he's a third year but it's not quite the result that he wants.  He also gets his Firebolt back and there's nothing wrong with it.  It's in perfect condition!  I wish There were real magic brooms.

chapter 11- The Firebolt

Ok so on Christmas morning Harry wakes up and he has this big package for him.  He opens it up and It's the latest and greatest broomstick in the entire wizarding world: The Firebolt.  However, there is no note, no card or message of any kind to say who its from.  Ron is amazed while Hermione is well...not.  She pops Harry's bubble and goes running to professor Mcgonagal about the broom.  She takes it form Harry and says that it will be stripped down to check for any jinxes.  Hermione thinks that Sirius Black sent Harry the broom.  And even if so, how could he? The whole ministry is after him!

chapter 11- The Firebolt

So basically After Harry hears this conversation he makes it back to Hogwarts and into his dormitory.  The next morning Ron and Hermione tell him not to go looking for black and not to do anything stupid.  Harry would do something stupid too.  He's too stubborn.  So he demands to go to Hagrid's hut to talk to him about Sirius Black and everything but they come to find that Hagrid had already been crying because Buckbeak (His hippogriff) is supposed to be killed.

chapter 10-the Marauder's map

Ok so this has been a long chapter but its almost over :) so Harry, Ron and Hermione decide to go to the Three Broomsticks for some Butterbeer and all of the sudden, all of these teachers come in and start talking about Sirius Black and how he's Harry's godfather.  Supposedly Sirius was the secret-keeper for the Potter family and he betrayed them.  I know thats not the truth though.

chapter 10-the Marauder's map

So Harry finds a way to sneak into Honeydukes and he finds Ron and Hermione and tells them about the map.  Of course Hermione is always the party pooper and doesn't think Harry should have the map because of Sirius Black but in all honesty I think Hermione just needs to relax nothing bad is going to happen.

chapter 10-the Marauder's map

Ok so after Harr's mishap at the Qudditch game Harry goes to lupin and asks for help about how to fight off Dementors. Lupin explains how Dementors work and why they guard Azkaban.  I find it fascinating!

chapter 9-grim defeat

Basically in this chapter I understood the meaning of the name for the chapter.  In the Quidditch match Harry sees a giant black dog-like cloud and then notices that there are hundreds of Dementors around him and he falls off his broom.  I think I would be terrified to come across a Dementor myself.
