Comments: The book, an extension of Harry Potter series, contains description of 75 different species of magical creatures, their mating habits, classification, etc. Some of the descriptions are rather funny and in no way boring.

Mistakes in the Harry Potter book series ..

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

• Much of the first chapter talks about wizards celebrating the fall of Voldemort all day long, yet Harry and his parents were attacked at night; unless it took Hagrid 24 hours to get Harry from his parents' ruined house in Godric's Hollow to Little Whinging, this seemingly does not make sense. A possible explanation, however, is that it does not say when Hagrid pulled him from the house. It could have been a full day until they could respond, or he could have kept Harry with him until night, when he could easily fly under cover of darkness to Little Whinging. He could have also gone to get baby Harry checked over to see if he had been harmed. The day, however, is 1 November, the day after Voldemort's downfall, so the celebrations are happening after his downfall the evening prior. We are also told later on in the Prisoner of Azkaban that Sirius was present for some time before Harry was given to Hagrid, so this may account for some more time.
• Dumbledore says that he passes through several parties to get to Little Whinging, however he got there by Apparition, which is a direct form of transport, although he could have apparated several times to go to many parties. Or Dumbledore could have been acting, in part, as a decoy and, in part, going to all these parties to lose anyone who might have been following him. Snape knew that Dumbledore had heard the prophesy, and the Death Eaters still on the loose would not suspect that Dumbledore would trust a baby in the care of a clumsy half-giant.
• On page 17 of the Bloomsbury edition, Hagrid says, "I'll be takin' Sirius his bike back." But in the third book, it is made clear that Sirius told Hagrid to keep the bike because he (Sirius) didn't need it anymore. (This was changed to "I'd best get this bike away" in later editions.)
• The beginning of the story takes place on a "dull grey Tuesday." In 1981, however, Oct 31 was on a Saturday, placing the celebrations on Nov 3. This makes what the TV weatherman wrong as he admonished people that Bonfire Night was the next week. In fact, it would have been in two days. The two days may in fact have crossed the boundary of that week, making the weatherman correct.
• The zoo trip took place on Saturday, but Dudley's eleventh birthday (June 23, 1991) actually was on a Sunday.
• The boa constrictor at the Zoo winked at Harry during their conversation. As snakes don't have eyelids, it is impossible for them to blink, for their eyes are protected by transparent scales.
• Harry's 11th birthday, 31 July, was a Tuesday. But in 1991 in the real world, that date was a Wednesday.
• Petunia speaks of Lily "turning teacups into rats" during her holidays away from Hogwarts. Yet, since underage wizards aren't permitted to use magic outside of school, this claim is highly unlikely and would more likely fit Petunia's anti-magic mentality.
• Aunt Petunia is described as looking as surprised as the other Dursleys about Harry needing to board at platform 9 and 3/4, yet according to Book 7 she would have gone there at least once and probably multiple times.
  
  • Perhaps she was just playing dumb to distance herself from the magical world?
  
  
• On Harry's Hogwarts list of school supplies, "1 Wand" is listed twice, as both the first and last item on the list. (Rectified in later editions)
• The air in the tunnels to the Gringotts vaults is described as getting colder as they go deeper. This only happens very near the surface, and only when the weather has been relatively warm. Once you get below the level where the temperature depends heavily on the seasons at the surface, the geothermal gradient takes over, and it gets hotter as you go deeper. In the world's deepest mines, the miners can only work for a short time before being brought back up, because of the risk of heat stroke.
• Much importance is placed on the theme of wandlore and wand ownership throughout the series, so it seems odd in retrospect that, during Harry's first meeting with Draco Malfoy in Madam Malkin's, he should mention that his mother is away looking at wands. Indeed, it is just as odd to hear that Ron has been equipped withCharlie's old wand. It is mentioned, however, in Deathly Hallows and on Pottermore that there are old superstitions about wands and what kind of people are chosen by certain wands and so it's possible that Narcissa Malfoy had certain beliefs along those lines. She simply be looking at the wands for Draco. As for Ron, his parents probably could not afford to buy him a new wand at the time. This was probably meant to show that his family was not very well off in terms of wealth. Even though it is better to have your own wand, a person can still do magic with another person's wand.
• When Harry is talking to Hagrid about his first meeting with Draco Malfoy, Hagrid says that "there's not a single witch or wizard who went bad that wasn't in Slytherin." At the point when this conversation takes place, Hagrid (along with the rest of the wizarding world) would have been under the impression that Sirius Black, aGryffindor, was responsible for betraying Harry's parents. This, however, is potentially simply an instance of the literary device of hyperbole ("the use of a statement to evoke strong feelings or create a strong impression but not meant to be taken literally"), rather than ever being intended as an accurate historical statement, even if one ignores the fact that there are known to be dark wizards from other schools, such as Grindelwald. This could also mean that Hagrid was referring to the family in Sirius's case, seeing as the Black family had all been in Slytherin with the exception of Sirius.
• When Harry returns from Diagon Alley to Little Whinging, he takes a train from Paddington station. But Little Whinging is in Surrey, south of London, so he should have travelled from Victoria or Waterloo; trains from Paddington head to the west. The sixth movie has shown that Little Whinging is very likely within a few miles of Surbiton (on the lines from Waterloo), and hence not within several miles of any station served by trains from Paddington.
• On his search for Platform 9¾, Harry overhears Molly Weasley asking her children "What platform was it again?" to which Ginny replies "9¾". Considering that she must have been on that platform about 20 times, it seems odd that she can't remember its number but it is likely that she was just checking her children's knowledge and memory, or trying to make Ginny feel included.
• On page 106, the closing quotation mark is missing right after Hermione tells Harry about the books he is in.
• While being sorted into houses, Harry looks up at the Sorting Hat's stool, and there are only three people left to be sorted. Professor McGonagall then calls out the names of four more students. (This is only in the US edition - in the UK edition; Dean Thomas's name is omitted (rectified in later editions).
• When Harry first met Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington, the ghost says he had not eaten in nearly 400 years. Yet he had, at the time, already been dead for 99 years longer than that. (rectified in later editions).
• Harry buys the book One Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi, but later, he looks up "dittany" in One Hundred Magical Herbs and Fungi (rectified in later editions).
• During the Hallowe'en feast, when the troll is let in, Professor Dumbledore sends the students to their dormitories. However, the troll is said to be in the dungeons, and that is also where the Slytherin dormitories are, meaning Dumbledore has put them directly in harm's way by sending them there. The logical move would be for every student to stay in the Great Hall, do a roll call, and send prefects/teachers looking for missing students.
• Fred tells Harry that the Gryffindor Quidditch team hadn't won a championship, "...since Charlie left..." Charlie attended Hogwarts from 1984-1991, and so had only just graduated as Harry arrived; indeed, Harry filled the seeker vacancy left by Charlie. However, Gryffindor had not won the championship since 1986, so Fred's statement, while technically accurate, is not an accurate portrayal of the situation.
• During the match against the giant chess set, Ron says, "Well, Harry, you take the place of that bishop, and Hermione, you go next to him instead of that castle." But the castle is next to the knight, not the bishop. It is, however, possible he meant "next to him" to mean "on the same side of the king and queen."
• At the beginning of the chess match, Ron is the knight in the giant chess set. However, it later says that he had to "move ahead one" so the Queen could take him, opening the path for Harry to checkmate the king. If he were a knight, he could only move 1) ahead one, sideways two, or 2) ahead two, sideways one, like an "L." It is possible this meant "one" as in a single move, but it is still an odd construction regardless.
• On Chapter 14, the night Charlie's letter shows up at Hogwarts is stated to be Wednesday at midnight. However in the chapter "The Potions Master", it is mentioned that Astronomy classes take place every Wednesday at midnight. Therefore, they are presumably skipping class, and the other students should not be asleep (this is corrected to Saturday in later editions).
• After Harry, Hermione and Neville lose Gryffindor 150 House points, it is mentioned that the Gryffindor Quidditch team are refusing to speak to Harry and only refer to him as 'the Seeker' if they have to refer to him at all. However, given that Fred and George are generally very laid-back, on good terms with Harry and, according to Ron, have lost numerous points for misdemeanours themselves, this does not seem to fit in with their established characters.
  
  • It is possible that as the reader gleans this (and most other) information through Harry's state of mind, that Harry was exaggerating how hostile the team were to him, and that it was only some of the team that treated him unpleasantly.
  
  
• The art for the cover of the UK edition depicts Harry at platform 9¾ wearing a Gryffindor scarf, however, Harry hasn't been sorted yet, thus not knowing he will be sorted into Gryffindor house.
  
  • It's possible the illustration is of Harry returning to Little Whinging at the end of the school term (though this seems like an unlikely explanation for what is more likely a mistaken illustration).
  
  
• The list of school supplies that Harry receives doesn't include potion ingredients, although Harry later buys them.
• Dumbledore said that his and Hermione's owl crossed in mid-air, however a few pages later Hermione says to Harry that that she ran into Dumbledore on the way to the Owlery to send him the owl.
• During the Sorting Ceremony, Sally-Anne Perks is sorted before Harry but in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, when everyone in fifth year are being called in alphabetical order to take their practical O.W.L.s, Parvati Patil is called before Harry. It should actually be Sally-Anne Perks, but because many students were pulled out of the school that year, it is possible Sally-Anne was cut out.
• On Harry's list, he has to buy "Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them", but he doesn't start his care of magical creatures class until 3rd year. However, the book could be used for other classes (Though this is unlikely)
• Dumbledore claims that the Mirror of Erised was enchanted to give the Philosopher's Stone to, "...one who wanted to find the stone - find it, but not use it..." However, as he stated at the time, Quirrell did not want to use the stone; he wanted to present it to his master. Thus, unless Dumbledore is describing his spell too narrowly, Quirrell should have been able to retrieve the stone.
  
  • If the fact that Quirrell wants to give the stone to someone who will use it is enough to block his access, then this protection also renders the stone essentially irretrievable to Dumbledore or the Flamels.
  • It could be that given that Quirrell shares his body with Voldemort, the enchantment on the mirror recognises them both as the same person.
  
  
• In the last chapter, Harry reassures Ron and Hermione that his summer won't be too bad since the Dursleys aren't aware that he can't use magic outside of Hogwarts. However, Petunia grew up having a witch as a sister and these rules were established long before Lily's schooling, so she would've known about the ban on underage magic.
