  • Chapter 1: Introduction&Biographies

  • Chapter 2: Alohomora

  • Chapter 3: Colloportus

  • Chapter 4: Incendio/Lacarnum Inflamare

  • Chapter 5: Spongify

  • Chapter 6: Wingardium Leviosa

  • Chapter 7: Res Momentum

  • Chapter 8: Diffindo

  • Chapter 9: Reparo


As we can see, this is a charms textbook for beginners. It teaches us 8 charms in all. Some of them are quite easy and basic, like Wingardium Leviosa, while others are less famous. Well, I can't work out the reason of this sequence~


Coming to Chapter 1, we can see that the author wrote something about Charms to readers. It then uses a recent report from the Ministry of Magic and some words from a wizard. Finally, the author states that this is a book better than the Standard Spells for he eliminated some useless ones and updated some of them.


The rest are the charms and we will use Chapter 2 as a sample of the rest chapters.


In Chapter 2, the author first introduced the inventor--Ivnor. Then, he introduced the spell--its pronouciation, its use etc. Finally, he tells us the common mistakes.


In short, this is quite a good spell textbook, very clear indeed. Though it only contains a few charms, each charm is explained and taught very well. As you can see, I gave it a high HL score(Hermione Lovegood's Score).
