Age 9 and over Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is the third, and possibly the best, book in the phenomenally successful, award-winning Harry Potter series by JK Rowling. After just about surviving yet another summer with the dreadful Dursleys, the arrival of Aunt Marge is the final straw and, in a fit of anger, Harry casts a spell on her, causing her to blow up like a balloon.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the sixth book in J.K. Rowlings bestselling series, picks up shortly after we left Harry at the end of The Order of the Phoenix.
