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.

I LOVE the Harry Potter series.
Its great so far. I think I'd like it since I'm really into mythology, cryptozoology, legends, magic, etc. Basically fantasy stuffs. :U
It had a lot of info it will want to read the next book, You just want to curl up and read.
It's good so far, but if your in fist grade or kindergarden it will be hard for you to read.
i think that this is a good book because it shows a googd ex. of teamwork and i like it because it has good detail
Harry Potter has become a phenomenon. The books are so vivid and well-written that any fantasy lover will immediately enjoy them.
I think this is a great book that pulls the reader into the world of witchcraft and wizardry. You will love the never forgettable adventures that Harry and his friends face throughout the entire book.
This book follows the journey of a boy who carries the weight of the world. Even though most of us can't relate to Harry's journey, we have all been in new situations we were uncomfortable with. I would recommend this book because everyone deserves to experience the world of magic.
This is the awesomest book in the WORLD!!!!SSSSSSSSOOOO glad dad made me read it! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
