David and Goliath is a story from the bible. It is the story of an underdog winning. Goliath was a huge giant that no one could beat and a young boy, David, was willing to try and fight him. Goliath had killed many people and David was no match for him. David got a sling shot and a rock and killed him with this. Everyone was shocked and so happy. they couldnt believe it.
Harry Potter is just like this. Voldamort is the most powerful evil wizard and kills so many people. even the most powerful wizards are scared of him. Voldamort tried to kill Harry when he was a little baby and HArry defeated him. People were shcoked and just could not beleive the news. Voldamort eventually returns but it is the similar allusion.
this also is like the heros journey. Neither harry nor David know they are going o be heros so they are innocent and niave. then they turn out to be really big deals. its awesome. everyone loves an unexpected hero!
