Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows doubts...?

Question

Hey, I've just read Harry Potter 7th book and I have 3 doubts. I've read the scholastic version...The first doubt is about the cover, this cover by Mary Grandpré shows Harry rising one of of his hands, in an orage place (sky) without any wand, he wears a green tshirt, with a brown cloack. There is also Voldemort without wand, like rising his hands like STOP! He wears a black cloack and his eyes are red. I want to know which scene from the book represents the cover, where are them? I been thinking about it and I don't guess it. My second doubt is about the little creature in King Cross that is crying when Harry is talking with Dumbledore, what does this mean? And my third doubt what can we see in Harry Potter's British cover. Thank you very much, I'm Mexican so excuse my English please. Here's the link of the scholastic cover: http://www.weeklyreader.com/readand... Byee

Answer 1

The US version cover depicts the last duel between Harry and Lord Voldemort in the Great Hall. The orange sky represents that red glow or something (sun shining, since the ceiling of Hogwarts was bewitched to reflect the sky outside). Harry is reaching for Voldemort's wand that is why Voldemort is wandless. Although Mary Grandpre probably forgot that in the story, Harry was still holding Malfoy's wand as he reaches for the Elder Wand.



The creature in King's Cross depicts the maimed soul of Lord Voldemort, the bit that was unintentionally put in Harry when he failed to kill him the first time. The rebounding curse was so great that Voldemort's soul shattered and bits found their way into Harry. Since Voldemort used Avada Kedavra again in the Forbidden Forest and Harry didn't attempt to fight back, he was killed thereby destroying Harry as a Horcrux.



The UK version cover depicts Harry, Hermion and Ron's flight from Gringotts after their B & E (breaking and entering) job in the Lestrange's vault to get Hufflepuff's cup. Griphook was depicted as holding the Sword of Gryffindor I think. For me the US version cover was better, it depicts that most important moment in all the series and befitting of the darkness of the story. The UK version looks more cartoonish.

Answer 2

WARNING: BOOK 7 SPOILERS!



1. I think that the Scholastic book cover for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is portraying the duel between Voldemort and Harry in the Great Hall (HPDH: pg. 743). I think the dark figures in the background are the witches and wizards watching the duel. As to why this cover is outside, as opposed to the Great Hall...I have no idea.



2. I think the little creature crying at King's Cross was the fragment of Voldemort's soul in Harry. It means that the soul that has been ripped apart to be formed into a Horcrux, has been destroyed by Voldemort, and has become this twisted little child at 'King's Cross' where it will probably stay--never being able to 'go on'. (HPDH: pg. 706-707)



3. The British cover for the Deathly Hallows shows Harry, Ron, and Hermione at Gringotts, where they broke in Bellatrix Lestrange's vault to find a Horcrux. (HPDH: pg. 536-540) The other British cover is showing Salazar Slytherin's locket.



END OF SPOILERS.



Note: You didn't too bad in your English, you're understandable and inoffensive. So, just keep practicing, and I'm sure you'll improve. Besides, I bet not a lot of us can speak fluent Spanish.

Answer 3

Well, I can only answer the questions to the best of my ability.



1. The picture portrayed on the American cover is Voldemort and Harry in the Great Hall, I believe. The dark figures lining the walls are the people watching. Both Harry and Voldy are trying to get to the Elder Wand. That's only my take on it, however.



2. The creature in King's Cross is definately questionable. My take on it was that it was Voldemort, or the little bits of his soul that had been murdered. He is unable to move on, because of the things that he's done with his soul and such.



3. If you're talking about the gold spilling and everyone reaching and stuff, it's the Gringotts scene. If you're talking about the dragon, it's the trio leaving Gringotts. If you're talking about the locket, it's the Salazar Slytherin locket.



Hope I helped!

Answer 4

The creature at Kings Cross is the part of Voldemort that was in Harry's scar. When Harry went to Voldemort to be killed in the forest, Voldemort could not kill Harry because he was using hte Elder wand and since harry was the master of the wand, it would not kill him. Instead, it killed the part of Voldemort's soul. The creature was the soul.



The British cover wads the scene at Gringotts when the gold is multiplying and the dorr to the vault bursts open.



The American cover is probably when the wand falls out of Vodlemorts hand when Harry uses Expelliarmus and harry is trying to grab it.

Answer 5

The first thing is, the cover you see is the US Cover. That cover is the end of the story; depicting the end scene with Voldemort battling Harry. (Possibly the elder wand scene) That doesn't matter. Second (spoilers) that little creature is Voldemort's dying soul (remember, all horcruxes are destroyed.) The UK Cover (the one with the locket) represents SALZAR Slytherine's locket and another scene is when Harry's 3 friends are breaking into Bellatrix Lastrange's vault for the Hufflepuff Cup.

Answer 6

Little creature crying maybe the Part of voldermort in Harry that have been killed by Voldermort himself.It is possible as Harry found hmself in Kings Cross with that thing.

You first doubt I think is the scene when Harry went to the forbiddden forest to meet voldemort.I think it may be a scene before he aimed the curse at harry.

The cover of the book i got is the scene when harry ron n hermione got inside gringotts and when they are escaping all gold and rubies spilled everywhere.

Answer 7

I read somewhere that the cover by Mary Grandpre depicts the final battle between Harry and Voldemort in the Great Hall. The little creature in Kings Cross is the piece of Voldemort's soul that attached itself to Harry when Voldemort's killing curse backfired when he tried to kill harry when he was still a baby.

Answer 8

The wrigling thing when Harry is in Kings Cross with dumbledore is the part of Voldemorts soul that was in Harry that voldemort killed. It was being moved on, but its so evil and twisted thats why it looks like that.

I'm not sure about the cover.

Answer 9

the respond lies with expenses clarification collectively as telling harry approximately goblins. He reported that goblins dont have self belief that a paid fee transfers possession, that it extremely is basically a condo till the guy who paid the money is accomplished with it or dies. of course the goblin view is wrong. i'm guessing in a paranormal international that if the sword of gryffindor extremely belonged to the goblin there might have been no way for it to wind up in the sorting hat. Now for the "genuine gryffindor" thought, for the smart purposes of the e book, beeing a genuine gryffindor is the main smart clarification. In chamber of secrets and techniques Dumbldore informed Harry 2 issues. "help will consistently come to those that seek for it." and that "basically a genuine gryffindor might have made the sword seem" So there you have it. Neville ought to have carried out the two, asked for help and been a genuine gryffindor. to seek for a genuine logical answer from a chain of e book the place maximum issues are solved via waving a wand and asserting some thing in latin is a mistake. you ought to pass on the international that JKR has created and in that international this is the main smart answer.

Answer 10

I think for doubt two the little creature is Voldemorts soul. Not sure about the others, i have a doubt too, seeing as Harry got rid of Voldemorts soul wouldn't that mean he doesn't have the 'Amazing Powers' anymore?!

Answer 11

The great hall never has a ceiling and if you remember at the point at which Harry disarms voldemort the sun was rising and the room was filled with sunlight which is why the orange sky....

Answer 13

okay, i'm not sure about the cover, although it does create a suspensefull anticipation of the book. as for the creature in kings cross, that is the ripped soul (the horcrux) that died with harry. i don't know about the brittish cover, but it can't be half as good as the american cover done by mary granpre.
