SUGGESTED READING
[043935806X.jpg] Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
(Book 5) - As his fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft
and Wizardry approaches, 15-year-old Harry Potter is in
full-blown adolescence, complete with regular outbursts of
rage, a nearly debilitating crush, and the blooming of a
powerful sense of rebellion. It's been yet another
infuriating and boring summer with the despicable Dursleys,
this time with minimal contact from our hero's non-Muggle
friends from school. Harry is feeling especially edgy at the
lack of news from the magic world, wondering when the freshly
revived evil Lord Voldemort will strike. Returning to
Hogwarts will be a relief... or will it? - Don't stand in
