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.

I am a very big fan for harry poter and astro and seventeen ans bts and jessi and ma ma moo I saw all the movie and book of harry potter and i memorize the storys
this is a great series
I started reading it and it's safe to say that I am completely confused! If you're VERY ADHD like me, I would not recommend you read this. I got extremely bored. There were so many pages, and in most of them, nothing happened. That's why I'm sticking to Percy Jackson, Heroes of Olympus, and Trials of Apollo. Oh, and Diary Of A Wimpy Kid too. There is no book more confusing and boring than this one in my opinion.
This book is probably the best out of all. (harry potter series) Its when it all happens.
Try this series. J.k. Rowling has made a great gateway to the magical world of Hogwarts. read it!
love it!! 😁👍
A boy who learns on his eleventh birthday that he is the orphaned son of two powerful wizards and possesses unique magical powers of his own. He is summoned from his life as an unwanted child to become a student at Hogwarts, an English boarding school for wizards. There, he meets several friends who become his closest allies and help him discover the truth about his parents' mysterious deaths. This book series got me through so much and i'm so happy that my family was able to get me on these books at a young age. These books have become an escape for me and i have no idea what i would be like without them, 10/10 would recommend.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone is an awesome book! I love the entire series! Any other Harry Potter fans should read : Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, The Tales of Beedle the Bard, and The Cursed Child. (aka the eighth book.)
