The Boy Who Lived: A Comprehensive Summary of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
Introduction
The story of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone begins with an introduction to the Dursleys, a family that prides itself on being "perfectly normal." They live at Number Four, Privet Drive, and have a deep-seated disdain for anything unusual. Mr. Vernon Dursley, the father, is a director at a drill company, while Mrs. Petunia is a busybody who keeps an eye on the neighbors. Their spoiled son, Dudley, is the center of their universe. However, the Dursleys harbored a secret: their connection to the Potters, a family they despised.
