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.

This is my favorite series!!
This was one of the very first chapter books I ever read
i what this book a long and long time
I think that the book gives us a great preview into the wonderful world of Harry Potter. It has action and suspense. It tells us about friendship and family. It takes us to a fantasy dream world filled with magic and mysteries. I think it is amazing and i love the way each charecter is introduced!
Harry Potter and the Scorcerers Stone is one of the most epic book of our time. None of the new books can ever beat it or any of the other Harry Potter books. This book is legendary and will be a classic in the future if it is not already one!
I've read these books at least ten times by now, but I must have older copies, because my covers are different. These are gorgeous! Where can I get them?
this book is long but its good
This book is extremely exciting you never know what is going to happen next!
