Answer the following questions after listening to the chapter:
- 1. When describing the Potters, Rowling coins the term “UnDursleyish.” From what you know so far of the Dursleys, how would you define “UnDursleyish”/“Dursleyish”?
2. On the day Harry’s parents died, what were some of the strange things happening that Mr. Dursley noticed?
3. If McGonagall is right that Dumbledore is the only wizard that Voldemort “was ever afraid of” why does Dumbledore say that “Voldemort has powers that I will never have”?
What do you think he means by this?
4. How are we first introduced to Harry Potter?
