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 loved this book a boy named harry moved in with his uncle because his parents died and his uncle cousin and uncles wife doesn't treat well and harry hates it there. Soon harry finds out he is a wizard and goes to a school for wizard named Hogwarts. There he meets hermione and Ron become friends and plays for the quidditch team. Harry spends a whole year there and by the end of the book he has to go home and come back next year. I found the book really interesting. This books relates to my life how I went to Texas and I had family I didn't even know about. I give this 5 starts because it was very suspenseful and interesting.

I love harry potter but when he was living with his uncle I did not like his uncle and the fat boy and his wife because they treated harry like trash and he should never forgive them or see them and now harry had escape his uncle house and I'm happy that he escape his stupid fat uncle and the fat boy and the the fat uncle wife like that's not fair that they treat harry and they treat the fat boy like coins and money like if my uncle do that to me I will leave and find a better place for me so I'm happy to have my mom by my side

Harry Potter is about to figure out that he is a wizard. "You're a wizard, Harry'"says Hagrid. Then Harry goes to Diagon Ally. After that, he gets on a train to go to Hogwarts.
