Facts about Books 6&7

prequel will not be necessary
- There will be a new Minister of Magic, no more Mr. Fudge.
- We will find out what happened to Hagrid's half brother Grawp. He will be a bit more controllable
in book 6.

he stayed for 4 weeks, so we know his stay will be less than 4 weeks.

for Harry says JK.
- Harry becomes even more powerful in book 6.
- In books 6 and 7 we will find out why Dumbledore trusts Snape.
- We will find out what happened to Wormtail AKA Peter Pettigrew
- More about the animosity between Snape and Sirius will be revealed in the last 2 books.
- JK has said that giving away the form of Snape's boggart and patronus says too much. We'll definitely
find out what Snape's worst fear is, and it'll be important.

- We will find out what exactly Dudley saw when he looked at the dementors.

- Muggles begin to notice "more and more odd" occurrences in book 6, says JK.
- The wizarding world is really at war in the sixth book.
- Harry will tell his dearest friends about the prophecy after it sinks in to him.
- We will learn more about Harry's relatives, including his grandparents (though JK says they aren't
really important to the story)
- We will find out what happened to Sirius's motorbike.
- Book 6 will be shorter than the 5th book (or at least JK's 99% sure, but will not swear on her children's
lives)
- There will be no "new" nationalities of children at Hogwarts. Hogwarts is a British school, and JK
says that adding foreigners for the sake of it is not in her plans.
- During an interview, when JKR was asked in which Hogwarts room she'd like to be for 1 hour, she said
it would be a room in which Harry has been before, but doesn't know its importance. Yet. (this could have happened in book
5, but we're unsure)
- During an interview for Kids BBC, Victor Greensteet (reporter) asked Rowling if Harry would have a
dragon for a pet. This is what she replied: "You can't tame a dragon, no matter what Hagrid thinks. It's simply impossible.
So no. He has more common sense. He MAY have a different pet in the future, but for now, I won't say anything else". (This
could have been buckbeak, but I'm sure we can expect more pets)
- In the same interview for Kids BBC, the reporter asked J. K. if Harry had ever used the internet,
and this is what she had to say: "No. They (the Dursleys) won't let him go near Dudley's computer, and Dudley is the only
one who has a computer. They hit him if he gets too near to the keyboard. So the answer would be No. I use it a lot, but Harry
doesn't. Wizards don't really need to go on the web. They have an even better way to find out what's happening in the outside
world, which I think is a lot more fun than the Internet, but I'm going to keep quiet on this one."
- The choice between what's right and what's easy will be a pillar of the plot in Harry's last 2 years
at Hogwarts
- Harry's parents' profession will be a big part of the plot.
- Something HUGE will be revealed about Lily Potter.
