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.

It is the best
This was such a great book! I recommend this book to anyone who loves fantasy and a new series. J. K. Rowling is such a talented writer. She has made 7 other books after this one. This book is about a boy named Harry Potter. He thinks that he is a normal boy, until a letter comes. His Aunt and Uncle could care less about him until they did everything they could to keep the letter away from him. Turns out he is a wizard, and an EXTREMELY famous one at that. He goes to Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This book is action packed and very adventurous. This book definitely deserves 5 stars!!
