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.

harry potter is the best. I think every one should read harry potter. my friend says that it is voodoo and stuff but it's not. if you like fighting and prophecies and magic then you will love harry potter.

I know, right? all the movies seem scary and makes you want to stay away from the books, but I finnaly got my little sis to read them.

This book was so good. It got me immersed in the Harry Potter series so that I read it every free minutes I had for the first 2 months, which is when I finished the series!

harry potter and the sorcerer's stone is a good book. why it is because, the lade who wrote it was poor and had a child so see stared to rite on a napkin about the story harry potter and that's how it be gone.
