Review of Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets opens with Harry pining for the end of summer recess so that he can return to Hogwarts. It is there where his friends are, and it is there that he is happy. There is no happiness in the home in which he lives with his uncle and aunt, the Dursleys, where he is in general looked down upon and mistreated. Harry's own parents are deceased and he has been taken in by his uncle and aunt, who treat him as a second-rate citizen. Shades of Cinderella. They might even treat him worse than they do except that they fear his powers of magic.
