The Boy Who Lived

Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number 4, Private Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much.

They were the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense.

Mr. Dursley was the director of a firm which made drills. He was a big, beefy man with hardly any neck, although he did have a very large moustache.

Mrs. Dursley spent so much of her time craning over garden fences. The Dursleys had a secret, and their greatest fear was that somebody would discover it.
