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.

awesome
Great book series its awesome totally recommend it love How J.K Rowling puts so much details in the book that you feel like your at Hogwarts standing with Harry Potter.
i read this book and really enjoyed it! After that I decided to read the whole series and now I am a HUGE FAN!!!!!!!!!!
I seriously LOVE this book. I am always wishing to go into the world or Harry Potter. It is all magical, wonderful, and the story and plot are all great. 6 stars, outta 5, at least.
I love this book. You meet new charecters and learn how Harry's adventure Belgians. I wish I could say more I would spoil something.😀 All in all great 📖
The day that I finished Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone I read the whole series in like a month! It was probably one of the best books I have ever read! I would definitely recommend it to kids and Tweens ages 8-12. If you love fantasy and magic you will totally love this book! So there is a boy named Harry and he finds out that he is a wizard! He goes to a wizarding school and meets friends, gets into trouble, and goes on some awesome adventures! And of course all the magic! What's not to love??!!
I loved this book This book is the first book in the Harry Potter series and it is amazing. For those of you who haven't read Harry Potter he is a wizard born child that gets raised by his aunt and uncle because his parents got killed. Then Harry potter finds out he is a wizard. so he goes to Hogwarts (the best wizarding school there is.)
I was up at night, caught in class, and in a trance while reading this book! I know it is a little old but if I hadn't have read it, I probably would have never have the same love of books that I do now. I would Also totally recommend reading the whole series.
