Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets,
by J. K. Rowling, is about a boy whose parents were killed when he
was a baby. Harry was sent to live with his aunt and
uncle. When Harry is 11 years old he finds out he is a wizard.
The rest of the book is about Harry’s life at Hogwarts School
Witchcraft and Wizardry learning about wizardry and fighting evil
Lord Voldemort.
I recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy
and adventure.

| Reviewer: Michele M. ‘08 Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, by J.K. Rowling is the
second Harry Potter book. This book is about Harry’s second year at Hogwarts School
of Witchcraft and Wizardry. During the year, he finds a diary that belonged to a former
Hogwarts student named Tom Riddle. When Harry looks in the diary it is empty. Harry tries
writing in it, but the words he writes disappear a few seconds later. Harry sees words
drifting across the page. Someone or something is trying to tell him something. Someone
must be living inside the diary waiting for a person to set him or her free. But how could
a person be living inside a diary? Read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for
the truth!

This picture shows the Quidditch match between
Gryffindor and Slytherin. Gryffindor is in red and Slytherin is in green.
Quidditch is a game played by wizards with 14 people, 4 balls and six goalposts (my
picture shows only half the pitch). The players fly around on broomsticks, three on each
team trying to score with the red quaffle, one trying to stop the opponents from scoring.
Two players try to knock their opponents off their brooms with two black balls
called bludgers, and last but definitely not least the seeker (Harry is Gryffindor's) who
tires to catch the Golden Snitch. If the quaffle goes through any of the six posts
it is worth 10 points. The capture of the Golden Snitch is worth 150 points and the
win of the game! |

a school for witches called Hogwarts. There is a serpent that is said to be in the chamber
of secrets, which is terrifying a lot of people. One day the serpent takes a little girl
named Giny into the chamber of secrets and keeps her there. Harry decides to save her.
If you want to find out more about Harry saves her, you
must read the book. |

| Reviewer: Matt S. '07 In the second book of the Harry Potter series, Harry goes back to
Hogwarts School for his second year. He meets his friends there and he learns new wizardry
spells. He, again, has to face the evil Voldemort. Harry nearly gets killed by Baslik, a
venomous snake. Looking at the snakes eyes will turn you into stone.
Read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets if
you like adventure! |
