In spite of the strong warnings from his godfather, and in a fit of boredom, Harry practices his Animagus Transfiguration training at #4 Privet Drive by himself.  He eventually gets it right and completely transforms into his animagious form.  But after a while enjoying his new form, he discovers he can’t transform back into his human form.  He needs someone’s help who knows how to switch him back.

The Challenge is to describe what Harry’s animagious form is and how he convinces someone he is Harry and needs help transforming out of his animagious form back to human form.

This Challenge is based on a suggestion by Ellery.  Thanks.
