Gr8 topic Sam!It made me think. And my opinion is thus...

Did Harry do it all by himself?

Of course not-he is not a superhero! Throughout the series he needed his friends-Hermione's lgic and knowledge of magic, Ron's wit, Sirius and Luin and Mood's help, Dumbledore's guidance...all those were essential.

So why don't they get the credit?
When does it say that they don't get any credit? Harry always thinks of them. Throughout the book he thainks highly of Hermione's cleverness, admiresa Dumbledore and Sirius-really he totally appreciates them.

Well...if the fact is that no book is named like HermioneGranger and the Philosper's Stone, it's for the basic reason that Herry is the main character and the whole story flows from his point of view. Thus the books are named after him.

Plus, If Harry did everything by himself would there have been any need for characters such as Hermione, Ron, Dumbledore, Sirius etc?

Would the deep bonds of friendship that Harry feels for Ron and Hermione, the ,loyalty he holds for Dumbldore, the love for Sirius exist if he had done all of IT alone?

All the bonds that exist, making Harry human and makes him possess the one weapon Voldy doesn't and never can poisses-LOVE-is because of the help that he received. The HELP that Harry received from all those around him HELPS him in gaining the final advantage of Voldy! It helps him in winning the battle!!!

Voldy did all the work that led him to his power all by himself and can he be called a success??? NOOO!!!

Thus, the help that Harry received does NOT make him any less great or any less powerful-t really makes him more powerful as e gains the power of love...And that makes him not oinly a powerful wizard but a powerful and great human who can be called humane from the right point of view whatever the circumstance is...

I rest my case...

Awesome Points Sam👏👏
Well, I'll have to say that Harry is really honest & loyal and that helps him acheive his goals.
On the other hand, Hermonie & Ron help him equally to get through everything. Harry isn't the only one who is responsible to get thorugh all this problems. He's been helped by his friends.

hey sam....good topic...
i also agrre wid some oder ppl posted here....
its true that it seems like Hermoine and ron have helped him...well to be very practicle...every successful person in real life has to have help....i mean even da HP movies...it wont be what it is if there arent ppl helping around rite ???
And also the fact remains that the book is about the boy hu lived....and not about the friend of the boy hu lived....
Credit shud be given to JKR...for making hermoine and ron the strong but still kinda hidden characters in the HP world....
Well dats wat i have to say !!
