I need to know what the climax in Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix is for a project in school. I have read the book and I love it but I can’t decide what the climax is. Help please?
Any other examples of climaxes would be very much appreciated as well but I don’t really care if you have those. I’m mainly interested in the one from Harry Potter. THANKS!

I would say the climax begins when the Death Eaters meet Harry and Co. at the Ministry, and ends after the massive Dumbledore/Voldemort duel. I know that’s a bit long for a climax, but that whole scene- Sirius’ death, the true realization that Voldemort really IS back, etc.- is what the book has been leading up to. Hope that helps!
Grr, I hate climax because books are too full of action and turning points to pick just one.
For Harry Potter 5, I’d say it’s when harry agrees to make the DA, or maybe when he’s excited about it. It shows the change of heart in him, and how he’s now up to the fight ahead, and it also show that there are more people out there who care about defeating Voldemort than just Harry, Ron and Hermione. It’s when the kids are ready to fight back against the Ministry.
i would say the climax is when voldemort and dumbledore duel. after that, there is nuch much happenig, the other events afterwards are just the falling action. the resolution would probably be: the misistry sees that voldemort returned.
