¿De qué trata la historia?
In HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX, Harry is spending another miserable summer at his aunt and uncle's house when he and his cousin Dudley are attacked by a pair of Dementors. Defending himself with the Patronus charm in the presence of a muggle lands Harry in all kinds of trouble with the Ministry of Magic. The wizards there are looking for any reason to punish and discredit him -- they don't want to believe that Voldemort is alive and gathering his Death Eaters once again. It takes a trip to the Ministry and lots of help from Dumbledore to clear Harry's name and get him back to Hogwarts for another year. Harry is relieved to be there until he meets the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, the Ministry's most ruthless defender, Dolores Umbridge. Harry can't control his outrage when she calls him an attention-seeking liar, refuses to teach real defensive magic (because what would a bunch of children need it for?) and starts censoring and firing the other Hogwarts teachers. He has to do something to fight back against Umbridge and prepare for the inevitable: the day he must face Voldemort again.
¿Vale la pena?
This exciting installment pits Harry against inept politicians, cruel teachers, and his number-one foe, Voldemort, who is indeed back no matter what the Ministry says. Harry faces so many trials this challenging school year, many thanks to the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher and toad-like Ministry toadie, Dolores Umbridge. She seems determined to get that "liar" Harry Potter expelled, or almost worse, off the Gryffindor Quidditch team for good. Harry can't control his temper whenever the aptly named Umbridge is around. He also can't seem to control his own body and emotions, a development both fascinating and frightening. Harry has repetitive dreams of long hallways and locked doors, sudden bursts of feeling that aren't his, and a regular prickling sensation in his scar. He suspects his connection to Voldemort has grown stronger with his return and is proven right when, in his sleep, Harry witnesses -- and is unwittingly a part of -- a vicious attack. Readers will be worrying as Harry does just how deep the connection goes and who will get attacked next.
They'll have to wait a bit to uncover that mystery. The school year is a busy one in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, what with the first real exams looming, Harry's attempts at dating, and super-secret meetings of a Defense Against the Dark Arts club -- Hermione's brilliant idea. And then there are the Weasley twins' rebellious antics that provide one of the most satisfying cheer-out-loud moments of the entire series. If only Harry's fifth year could end on that high note, but when has a year at Hogwarts ever ended peaceably? The inevitable showdown is a nail-biter, and even more exciting because Harry's got a crew of friends along to fight with him – hooray for Neville, Luna, and Ginny. And in the wake of another tragic loss, it's finally time for Dumbledore to tell all he knows. It's a startling revelation that sets up the even more intense showdowns in the Harry Potter books to come. Get ready.
Las familias pueden hablar sobre ...
Families can talk about anger in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. With Dolores Umbridge around, there's plenty to be mad about. When Harry rages at Umbridge, what are the consequences? Which version of Harry are you when you face an injustice? How much harder is it to decide to do something about injustice than stew in anger over it?
Why did Harry agree to let Rita Skeeter tell his story? When the article is banned at school everyone wants to read it -- and does. Can you think of examples of this happening in today's media?
What does Dumbledore mean when he says that the fountain in the Ministry of Magic depicting witches and wizards ruling over other magical creatures "told a lie"? How would this magical world be different if centaurs, house elves, and goblins were treated as equals? What other books do you read that question the way class or race are viewed in society? How many of them are fantasies?
