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.

Ii like it

it is good.

This book is very exciting and really good I am a potterhead myself (harry potter fan). I am on the fifth book and it has me on the edge of my seat all those nights staying up to 2 o'clock in the morning just to finish that chapter 1 chapter can turn into 12 chapters very easily I read the first book in a night because it hooked me so quickly. I'm in fifth grade and my dra level was 40 now from reading harry potter it is a 60. If you like Magic and friends with a twist at the end you will love this story, I no I did. Huge fan of J.k too,
