Commentary
Notes
This event appeared as chapter 1, moment 3 of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone on Pottermore.
In the summer of 2004, Rowling's publishers changed Hagrid's line "I'll be takin' Sirius his bike back." to "I best get this bike away." because this sentence didn't fit very well with the way the character of Sirius was developed as the series progressed.
