Detailed Summary We are introduced to the Bucket Family who are Grandpa Joe, Grandma
BOOK OF BOOKS 12

Josephine, Grandpa George, Grandma Georgina, Mr. Bucket, Mrs.

Bucket, and Charlie Bucket. They all live together in a small house and
are very poor. The Chocolate factory is one thing that keeps Charlies
spirits high as it is in the same town they live in and he gets to have one
chocolate bar a year on his birthday. Grandpa Joe knows a lot about the
Wonka factory and tells Charlie stories about Willy Wonka. He tells of
how the factory was shut down because of spies stealing secret recipes
and selling them to other chocolate makers. During one of these stories,
Mr. Bucket gives news of a contest in which five lucky children who
find golden tickets within Wonka chocolate bars will get to tour the
chocolate factory. All of Charlies family hopes that Charlie will find a
golden ticket in his chocolate bar on his birthday but sadly he doesnt.
Grandpa Joe gives Charlie some saved up money to go and buy another
bar of chocolate to try again but still there is no golden ticket. Then one
day Charlie finds a dollar on the street and takes it to the store and buys
a candy bar which he quickly eats and then asks for a second bar which
he then finds the last golden ticket in. Grandpa Joe decides to go with
Charlie to the chocolate factory. The factory is amazing with marvelous
rooms such as one in which everything is edible and has a chocolate
river. There are also little people called Oompa-Loompas who work at
the factory. One by one each of the other four children on the tour cause
trouble and then are taken away. Augustus Gloop falls into the
chocolate river while trying to drink from it. Violet Beauregarde chews
magical gum which causes her to swell with juice and become like a
blueberry. Veruca Salt tries to steal a worker squirrel from the nut room
and ends up going down the garbage chute. Mike Teavsends himself
over television and ends up shrunken. Since Charlie is the only one who
caused no trouble at all Wonka tells him that he has won the entire
factory. Willy Wonka wanted someone to take over the factory as he is
getting old. Charlie, Grandpa Joe, and Willy Wonka blast off in the
great glass elevator. They overlook as the other four children leave the
factory and make note of how much each of them has changed. The
book ends with them crashing into the Buckets houses roof and telling
the family of how Charlie has won the chocolate factory.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone

Author J. K. Rowling
Illustrator Mary GrandPr
Grade Level Fourth Seventh
Detailed Summary We start in the past as Wizards celebrated at the defeat of Voldemort
who killed Harry Potters parents but failed to kill Harry. He became
known as The Boy Who Lived. Harry lost his family and home so
Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Hagrid find Harry a home
with his muggle Aunt Petunia, Uncle Vernon, and Cousin Dudley. Ten
years later, Harry lives in a room under the stairs and his Aunt, Uncle,
and cousin all treat him very cruelly. On a trip to the zoo, Harry talks to
BOOK OF BOOKS 15

a snake and seemingly makes the glass disappear from his cage so the
snake could return home. Mysterious letters begin to arrive for Harry
with an exact address that even says, the room under the stairs. Uncle
Vernon is very aggravated and tries to keep these letters from Harry.
The letters keep arriving at such a rapid rate that Uncle Vernon takes the
family to a deserted island the evening before Harrys eleventh birthday
so they may escape the mail. Hagrid arrives at the house on the deserted
island and delivers the letter directly to Harry on his birthday. Hagrid
tells Harry that he is a wizard and has been accepted into Hogwarts
School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Hagrid takes Harry to Diagon Alley
to shop for school supplies and learn more about the wizarding world.
Harry meets the bully Draco Malfoy and the new Defense Against the
Dark Arts Professor Quirrell. Harry buys his first wand and Hagrid buys
Harry an owl he names Hedwig. They also visit Gringotts Bank, where
Hagrid picks up a mysterious package. At the end of summer, Harry
searches for Platform 9 which he learns is a magical platform
between Platforms 9 and 10. The Weasley family help him figure out
how to get to the Platform. Harry makes friends with Ron Weasley and
meets other first years of Hogwarts, Hermonie Granger and Neville
Longbottom. When they first arrive at Hogwarts, all the first years are
sorted into one of four houses, Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, or
Hufflepuff. Harry, Ron, Hermonie, and Neville are all sorted into
Gryffindor, known to be brave and loyal, and Malfoy is sorted into
Slytherin, known for ambition and for producing dark wizards. The
sorting hat debated between putting Harry into Gryffindor or Slytherin
but Harry wants anything but Slytherin so the Sorting Hat puts him in
Gryffindor. They all begin to take classes in various types of magic.
Harry has the most trouble in Potions class with Professor Snape who is
often very mean to him. Harry learns that there was an attempted
robbery at Gingotts bank but nothing was taken. He believes that it has
to do with the package Hagrid picked up and Hagrid lets it slip that the
package has something to do with Nicholas Flamel. During the Harrys
first broom flying lesson, Malfoy teases Neville but Harry defends him
and finds out that he is a natural with flying. Harry broke the rules by
flying unsupervised but he is rewarded because of his skills by Professor
McGonagall and is made the Seeker for the Gryffindor Quidditch team.
Malfoy challenges Harry to a wizard duel late at night and Hermonie
and Ron accompany him but Malfoy is a no show as he wanted to get
Harry in trouble for roaming the school late at night. The three rush
back to the dorms but the stairs move and lead them to a room in which
they run into a three-headed monster dog. They nearly escape. Harry
and Ron save Hermonie from a troll and get in trouble for facing it
alone but are commended for their bravery and now are very close.
When winter break comes along, Harry receives an invisibility cloak for
Christmas. Harry uses the cloak to sneak around Hogwarts and finds the
Mirror of Erised in a secret room. Harry sees his parents in the mirror
BOOK OF BOOKS 16

but Ron sees himself as a hero. When winter break ends the three
friends discover that Nicholas Flamel is an alchemist who created the
Sorcerers stone which can create an elixir used for immortality. Hagrid
adopts a dragon but this is illegal. Malfoy catches the three friends with
Hagrids dragon and tells on them. The main three are given detention
along with Malfoy and lose enough points to put Gryffindor in last
place. They serve detention late at night in the forest with Hagrid and
discover that Voldemort is attempting to return and is killing unicorns in
the dark forest. After their first-year exams the three friends talk to
Hagrid and realize he said to much about the sorcerers stone to a
stranger at the bar who sold him the dragon. They all think it is Snape
who is trying to steal the stone so they decide to go after the stone at
night. They get pass the three-headed dog with music, use light to get by
dragons snare, catch a flying key, and play a life-sized game of
wizards chess. Wizards chess takes out Ron so then they go through a
logic puzzle of drinking potions in which only one can pass. Harry
drinks the potion and goes to the final room to discover Professor
Quirrel. Voldemort is living on Professor Quirrel like a parasite and
tries to get Harry to get them the stone out of the Mirror of Erised.
Harry gets the stone and Quirrel/Voldemort tries to kill him but burns as
soon as he touches Harry. At the end of the year festival Harry, Ron,
Hermonie, and Neville are all awarded enough points to make
Gryffindor the house cup champions. Harry hates to leave back for the
Dursleys house but believes it will be easier now that he knows magic.

Lesson Plan One

Activity Name Muggle Quidditch

Domain/Discipline
Standard/Goal
Materials Needed One foam soccer ball (quaffle)
4 to 8 solid-color foam balls, each about 8 inches in diameter
(bludgers)
1 small super-bouncy ball (snitch)
6 hula hoops (goals) The hoops need to hang about 6 feet off the
ground from a soccer net crossbar, tree branch, or something
similar (three at each end). Each team should wear same-color
shirts.
Directions Rules To begin the game, 8 to 10 players per team are assigned
positions. If more kids want to join in the fun, additional players can
easily be added. Here's what the positions do:

Chaser: Three to four per team. Chasers are offensive players similar to
forwards in soccer. They try to throw the quaffle through one of the
BOOK OF BOOKS 17

hoops to score 10 points.

Beater (or Tagger): Three to four per team. They use the bludger to tag
out chasers and the seeker. The beaters are defensive players, like soccer
fullbacks.
Seeker: One to two people per team (depending upon your team size),
who, when the snitch is released, try to catch it to score 150 points.
Keeper: This person guards the goals and tries to block any attempt to
score. Each team has one keeper.

Game Play
The game begins with a chaser from each team standing in the center
with the other teammates positioned around them (much like a
basketball game tip-off). The beaters stand back some, protecting their
goals. The quaffle is tossed into the air by the referee (that's you) and
the center chasers try to tip the ball to another chaser on their team.
Seekers and beaters don't touch the quaffle.
Once the quaffle is caught by a chaser, she runs with it toward the
three hula hoop goals. If she throws the quaffle through one of the
opposing team's hoops, she earns 10 points for the team. Meanwhile,
beaters are playing defense, attempting to stop the chasers from
advancing or scoring by throwing the soft foam bludgers at them.
Once tagged with the bludger, the chaser must stop moving and try
to pass the quaffle to another chaser on the same team (once she makes
the pass, she can move again). If the quaffle is dropped or intercepted by
a chaser on the opposing team, that team takes possession. When a goal
is scored, players return to the center for a new tip-off.
At some point in the game, the referee will release the snitch. As the
only players who can touch the snitch, this is where the seekers come
into play. Just like in the movie, the snitch needs to move as much as
possible, which is why a super-bouncy ball is needed.
If the snitch stops rolling or bouncing without being picked up, it
goes back to the referee to be released again later in the game. The first
seeker to catch the snitch scores 150 points for his team, the game
immediately ends, and the points are tallied to determine a winner.
Usually, but not always, it's the team that earned an extra 150 points by
catching the snitch.
