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

The excerpt above is from page 1 of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J. K. Rowling. Paraphrase, summarize, and quote the passage above. Be sure to include in-text citations using the MLA style.

Ah, I remember Harry Potter.

In J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Mr. and Mrs. Dursley are described as people, "proud to say that they were perfectly normal" (1). Further on, they are described as "the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense" (Rowling 1). Mr. and Mrs. Dursley live in number 4 Privet Drive, and they are normal, in the sense of their own thoughts. They are not superstitious people, as they didn't believe in the "strange or mysterious" (1). These people would never associate themselves with the unknown, and due to this, they pride themselves for being normal.
