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 massive Harry Potter fan! Follow if you agree.
It was as if I could go to Hogwarts and do magic myself, If I knew how to get there.

I like scary stuff I watch scary stuff all the time I like to read scary stuff to Gary stuff is one of my favorite things in the whole wide world but no one no one would probably give it a thumbs up because everyone really doesn't like scary stuffI don't know whycan anyone tell me
I've read the whole series and they are so good!!!
It is kinda scary... but i like it. it gives me nightmares though. I like the Quittich thing the best. I recomend it if your okay with really... scary... stuff...
I would think the age rating would be 8 and up... for me at least.
Very nice book it is so cool
BEST Harry Potter movie!! The only thing is that when Harry were in the school just doing school and they didn't know about Flamel or the stone it was kinda boring
I love this book I think it is very cool.
This book is a 5-star page-turner, and I've read the whole series I recommend it. I also recommend all the other books
