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 this book
I love Harry Potter
I haven't finished this book yet but I have seen the movies and I love them!!!
I didn't think that Harry Potter was a very good book, it was kinda boring.
I started off kindergarten thinking that the world was going to be magical, but later found out that I was horribly wrong. After enough drama to last a lifetime, I started reading Harry Potter.When I ask people with Ravenclaw lunchboxes, Griffindor backpacks, or eccedera if they have ever read the books, every response so far has been like this: "Don't need to.I saw the movie." This practically has smoke coming out of my ears! Harry Potter's dedicated fans have actually read the books!
I have read this series FOUR TIMES. I REPEAT, FOUR TIMES. I am the LARGEST FAN EVER. J.K. Rowling is amazing, and I really like the way she made this book. It is my favorite book in the series. I am in 5th grade, but I began to read this in 2nd grade. It took me till 4th grade, but I finally finished the series for the first time in that 2-year span. My favorite characters are Hermione, Harry, Ron, Ginny, the Weasley Twins, and Dumbledore. I have the whole series on my bookshelf, and whenever I need to go into another world, I pick up one of J.K. Rowling's famous books.
Ahhh, the Weasley twins... XD they're pretty great!!
ikr i love them!
this is the best book ever
it is the best book.omg
i loveee harry potter
