This special edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone has a gorgeous new cover illustration by Kazu Kibuishi. Inside is the full text of the original novel, with decorations by Mary GrandPré.

Harry Potter has never been the star of a Quidditch team, scoring points while riding a broom far above the ground. He knows no spells, has never helped to hatch a dragon, and has never worn a cloak of invisibility.

All he knows is a miserable life with the Dursleys, his horrible aunt and uncle, and their abominable son, Dudley — a great big swollen spoiled bully. Harry’s room is a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs, and he hasn’t had a birthday party in eleven years.

But all that is about to change when a mysterious letter arrives by owl messenger: a letter with an invitation to an incredible place that Harry — and anyone who reads about him — will find unforgettable.

For it’s there that he finds not only friends, aerial sports, and magic in everything from classes to meals, but a great destiny that’s been waiting for him… if Harry can survive the encounter.

After all this time I right a review! Ok so this book is truly amazing and I wanted to write about it. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer Stone. It all starts early harry potter was a normal child as he thought but what he didn't know that he was a very special child in fact. Harry was raised by his muggle aunt and uncle and there spoiled rotten child. One day it was his cousins birthday so they went to the zoo there he figured out he was not a normal boy. Talking to snakes that's almost terrifying! Soon after that one calm and quiet afternoon harry got mail from a unknown person his uncle was very disturbed by this action

This book(Im forced to spoiled it) is creepy. It all starts in a small neighborhood, Harry Potter(secretly a wizard) was in his little broom closet(his room) was yelled "Wake Up Don't Burn Duddley's Pancakes"(some quote like that). After a few days, Harry found out about being a wizard.Im not spoiling more.

My friend told me about the Harry Potter book series.This book really opened my imagination.All the spells and animals in this book inspired me to really think outside the box a little bit.You can tell J. K. Rowling put a lot of effort and detail into the book.And this book is a great example on how to start an amazing series.
