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 love this book. If you're new to the Harry Potter series then DEFINITELY start with this book. It's an introduction to EVERYTHING, without reading this one you'd be lost in the rest of the series.
This book is awesome. It has adventure, excitement, and fun. It is one of my favorite books.
Amazing story that tells the tale of a boy who learns he is a wizard.
Yeah, I love this book. It's obvious. I guess SOME people might not like it, which I respect, but seriously, this is a good book! I only read up to book five as well,
i mean so full of wizardry it comes right next to naruto so good i would reccomend it to everyone for sure
I think that Harry Potter is the best series ever. I have only read up to 5 book and I love it. Harry Potter books are funny, adventurous and exiting. Harry gets to fly on a broomstick, fight a troll, and save something important... if he can last long enough? I really hope you will try Harry Potter.
Very good book .I am sure you'll love it
