Description

Chapter 4 - Number Twelve, Grimmauld PlaceThe othersʹ hushed voices were giving Harry an odd feeling of foreboding; it was as though they had just entered the house of a dying person.Q1 - What do you think of this house?The warm glow that had flared inside him at the sight of his two best friends was extinguished as something icy flooded the pit of his stomach. All of a sudden —  after yearning to see them for a solid month — he felt he would rather Ron and Hermione left him alone. Q2 - Is Harry and extravert or an introvert?Q3 - Should Ron and Hermione have informed Harry anyway?ʹSome of them are working on recruiting more people to the Order said Hermione. ʹAnd some of them are standing guard over something,ʹ said Ron. Theyʹre always talking about guard duty.ʹ ʹCouldnʹt have been me, could it?ʹ said Harry sarcastically. ʹOh, yeah,ʹ said Ron, with a look of dawning comprehension.Q4 - Is Harry what they were guarding?ʹYou donʹt want to bottle up your anger like that, Harry, let it all out,ʹ said Fred, also beaming. There might be a couple of people fifty miles away who didnʹt hear you.ʹ Q5 - Is joking the best way to stop anger?Q6 - What do you think of Percy abandoning the family?ʹWell, theyʹre writing about you as though youʹre this deluded, attention seeking person who thinks heʹs a great tragic hero or something,ʹ said Hermione, very fast, as though it would be less unpleasant for Harry to hear these facts quickly. ʹThey keep slipping in snide comments about you. If some far fetched story appears, they say something like, ʺA tale worthy of Harry Potterʺ, and if anyone has a funny accident or anything itʹs, ʺLetʹs hope he hasnʹt got a scar on his forehead or weʹll be asked to worship him nextʺ ‐ʹ  Q7 - What do you think about the Ministry doing this?Q8 - Have you ever been in the paper?Chapter 5 - The Order of the PhoenixIn the flash of light caused by Mrs Weasleyʹs charm Harry caught a glimpse of what looked like the plan of a Building. Mrs Weasley had seen him looking. She snatched the plan off the table and stuffed it into Billʹs already overladen arms.Q1 - What are they looking at?Q2 - What is the most annoying thing that people kept a secret from you?There was something about the slightly flattened tone of voice in which Sirius uttered Dumbledoreʹs name that told Harry that Sirius, too, was not very happy with the Headmaster. Harry felt a sudden upsurge of affection for his godfather.Q3 - Whats the deal with Dumbledore?Q4 - Who would you want to be sitting next to at this meal?ʹHeʹs not your son,ʹ said Sirius quietly. ʹHeʹs as good as,ʹ said Mrs Weasley fiercely. ʹWho else has he got?ʹ Q5 - Team Molly, or Team Sirius?Q6 - What do you think of Voldemort and the Order of the Phoenix and their plans?The Order is comprised only of overage wizards,ʹ he said. ʹWizards who have left school,ʹ he added, as Fred and George opened their mouths. There are dangers involved of which you can have no idea, any of you… I think Mollyʹs right, Sirius. Weʹve said enough.ʹ Chapter 6 - The Noble and Most Ancient House of BlackQ1 - There’s a portrait in Harry’s room that’s mentioned a lot, do you think it has any significance?Q2 - What is this weapon that Sirius mentioned?ʹRight‐o,ʹ Fred said brightly, spraying the Doxy quickly in the face so that it fainted, but the moment Mrs Weasleyʹs back was turned he pocketed it with a wink. ʹWe want to experiment with Doxy venom for our Skiving Snackboxes,ʹ George told Harry under his breath.Q3 - Thoughts on Fred and George experimenting on magical creatures?Q4 - Do you think Mundungus is really just trying to make money, or does he have some other intent?ʹLeave?ʹ Sirius smiled bitterly and ran his fingers through his long, unkempt hair. ʹBecause I hated the whole lot of them: my parents, with their pure‐blood mania, convinced that to be a Black made you practically royal… my idiot brother, soft enough to believe them… thatʹs him.ʹ  Sirius jabbed a finger at the very bottom of the tree, at the name ʹR
