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 was a book I didn't expect I would like. All my friends told me it was such a bad book, but I thought all the characters were really well developed especially Hermione and Draco.
awesome book
It is a totally good book!
Awesome
I read this series 4 years ago and I absolutley love it! I never thought I liked fiction ( only historical and realistic) but after reading this is changed how I viewed these kind of books. The book is about a boy named Harry Potter who has been brought up always knowing his parents passed away in a car crash. He has had to live for 11 years with his Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia and his plump cousin Dudley. During his stay he was never loved, never got to celebrate his birthday, and thats saying a lot compared to Dudley who whines that he only got 26 presents and not 27. In his mind what can be worse? Living in a cupboard under the stairs, never getting mail, Dudley stomping on his tiny called "bedroom". So the average day Harry picks up the mail to find a letter for no other that HIM HIMSELF , addressed Mr. H Potter "the cupoard under the stairs" 4 privet drive little whining surrey. And thats when it all starts, I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO WIN THIS BOOK AS I COLLECT THE NEW EDITIONS OF EACH HARRY POTTER AND I AM A MASSIVE FAN! I DRESSED UP AS GINNY WEASLEY FOR HALLOWEEN, I HAVE 4 WANDS BEEN TO THE HARRY POTTER THINGY AT UNIVERSAL STUDIOS AND THE SET IN LONDON! I AM A BIG FAN AND I WOULD LOVE TO WIN THIS!
P.S. I HAVE READ THE BOOKS 5 TIMES OVER AND TH MOVIES 3 TIMES EACH
