The speaking with snakes, and the disappearing glass, are only the latest manifestations of Harry's magical background; we have also, in this chapter, read about flying to a rooftop to avoid a beating from Dudley's gang, hair that grew back overnight, and a jumper (sweater) that shrunk impossibly when Aunt Petunia was trying to fit it onto Harry. While it seems that these early magical signs could be the trigger that puts [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Albus Dumbledore]]'s great plan into action, we must recall that Harry is about to turn 11. It is when magical children turn that age that they are invited to attend [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry|Hogwarts]], which they begin the September that follows their eleventh birthday. The author has stated that Hogwarts is the only Wizarding school in the United Kingdom, thus every magical child will receive the opportunity to attend when he or she reaches 11. Not all children do attend; some, like [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Marvolo Gaunt|Marvolo Gaunt]], who we will meet later in the series, likely would never have entrusted the established school system with their children. Others may attend a school in another country. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Draco Malfoy|Draco Malfoy]], Harry's future nemesis, mentions that he almost went to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Durmstrang Institute|Durmstrang]], a school hidden somewhere in Eastern Europe, and a place Harry will likely wish Draco had attended.

Although Harry has no idea yet that he possesses magical powers, he is beginning to realize that he has some unusual abilityabilities that other children lack. From later conversations Harry has with Muggle-born wizard children, it appears that their families were generally unaware the wizardWizarding world existed until their child was old enough to attend Hogwarts. The parents, who probably realized their child was somehow different, generally are quite shocked upon learning they have a magical offspring. It is unknown why Muggle parents are apparently never told about the magical world prior to their child's eleventh birthday. At least some Muggle-born magical children may show no overt magical ability until they are older, and therefore remain undetected by the Wizarding community. Harry, however, discovers that the Dursleys have always known that he is a wizard, and not only deliberately withheld this information, but attempted to suppress his magical ability. Harry also learns his parents were wizards and were murdered, rather than killed in a car crash as the Dursleys told him. Harry will discover even later that Aunt Petunia knows far more about the Wizarding world than she has ever let on, even to her husband.
