zzling sausage. nobody said a
thihe giant was w, but as he slid the first six fat,
juicy, slightly burhe poker, dudley fidgeted a
little. un said sharply, ”dont toug he gives
you, dudley.”
the giant chuckled darkly.
”yet great puddin of a son doenin anymore, dursley,
don worry.”
he passed the sausages to harry, who was so hungry he had never
tasted anything so wo he still t take his eyes
off the giant. finally, as to explain anything,
he said, ”im sorry, but i still dont really know who you are.”
the giant took a gulp of tea and wiped his mouth with the back
of his hand.
”call me hagrid,” he said, ”everyone does. an like i told yeh,
im keeper of keys at hogwarts -- yehll know all about hogwarts,
o course.
”er -- no,” said harry.
hagrid looked shocked.
”sorry,” harry said quickly.
”srid, turning to stare at the dursleys, who
shrank bato the shadows. ”it s them as should be sorry! i knew
yeh wereiers but i yeh wouldnt
even know abou hogwarts, fer out loud! did yeh never wonder
where yet pare all?”
”all what?” asked harry.
”all what?” hagrid thundered. ”now wait jus one sed!”
he had leapt to his feet. in his ao fill the
whole hut. the dursleys were g against the wall.
”do you meaell me,” he growled at the dursleys, ”that
this boy -- this boy! -- knows nothin abou -- about anything?”
harry thought this was going a bit far. he had been to school,
after all, and his marks werent bad.
”i khings,” he said. ”i , you know, do math and
stuff.” but hagrid simply waved his hand and said, ”about our world,
i mean. your world. my world. yer parents world.”
”what world?”
hagrid looked as if he was about to explode.
