First edition
Has all errors: Page 10 — “site” instead of “sight” Printed: “The site, therefore, of Fudge stepping out of the fire…” Correct: “The sight…” A straightforward typo. 2. Page 103 — Hermione’s OWL count is impossible Printed: “ten Outstandings and one Exceeds Expectations” Correct: nine Outstandings + one EE Hermione cannot have 11 OWLs — she only sat 10 exams. 3. Page 269 — Missing chair in the room description Early description lists only a bed and wardrobe. Later, Harry sits on a wooden chair that was never mentioned. Later printings add the chair to the first description. 4. Page 342 — Missing opening quotation mark Printed: …straightening her hat. Have a little purkey, or some tooding. Correct: …straightening her hat. “Have a little purkey, or some tooding.” 5. Page 476 — Wrong number of hours Printed: “…not twenty‑four hours’ worth…” Correct: “…not twelve hours’ worth…” A factual error in the potion‑timing reference.
