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.

OMG! I love love love Harry Potter! I have read the series three times! The first book was good so i wanted to read the second and so on. The first book has to be good or else you won't read the other books. I started in third grade and now always read them
I like Harry Potter. But I tried to read it in 2nd grade (I was a bookworm when I was little) but didn't understand a work. So I recommend this book to kids in 3rd grade.
I love this series! I think it is really good! there is magic, adventure, action! I recommend this to 8 year olds and up!

I just got done reading this book moving on my granddad has all of this books he told me that I can read this book these books are super cool and I would tell any one to read it any day. :)
This is an amazing book I recomend this book to everyone who likes book with action and spice. I think everyone should read it. The ages that this book is good for are 8-12
this is probably an awsome book for eny one.. i read it when i was 9 10 years old ha
It's a magic adventure! I love it because it has magic, mystery, fun, and friendship. It is fun for the hole family.
This book is about young Harry and his journey to discover his destiny. I read this book because my BFF for life persuaded me. Trust me that I hate fighting and blood and I know that there is alot in the books, but J.K. Rowling does a perfect job with it.
