This book was a great book full of adventure, humor and action. You get to love the characters and lots of different views too which made the book good. Also this book is part of a series so you can read a lot of it. I think this is the best book of the series because it started the series. There's a lot of crazy places and things that happened in the book with magic and all. This book will keep you reading and wanting to read more!

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, written by J.K. Rowling was one of my favorite childhood books. I decided to reread it this year just for fun. In this book, the author wanted to strictly entertain her audience. Rowling imagined this complex wizardly world in her head and made a wonderful story out of it. She makes up this character, Harry Potter, who is introduced in the very first chapter of the book. He is dropped off to live with his wretched aunt and uncle who mistreat Harry and favor their own piggish son Dudley. When Harry turns eleven, he discovers that he is in fact a wizard. He has a hard time believing that he is actually a very important wizard, the boy who lived. After the most powerful dark wizard killed his parents, then tried to kill Harry, but he couldn't.... Harry Potter is very famous in this new wizard world. Rowling does a fantastic job of separating the wizard world and the 'muggle' world. (Muggle is a term used in the book used to describe someone with no magic within them.) Muggles are not supposed to understand the wizard world. Rowling also is very descriptive with the magic used in the book. Reading this again made me wish I could do magic, it seems that life would be easier. Hagrid, in the chapter Diagon Alley exclaims, "I don't know how the Muggles manage without magic." As Harry Potter learns more and more about his past, he gets ready to go to his new wizard school, Hogwarts. Harry is very excited to become a wizard but feels like he is going to be a bit behind because he grew up with a Muggle family. Little does he know, he has a natural talent at a lot of things taught in Hogwarts. As the story unfolds, Harry experiences adventure after adventure, that's why it's so hard to put this book down. Luckily, this is the first book of the series so there is much more to be read.

Harry potter and the sorcerer's stone is about how Harry deals with his step parents after showing up at their doorsteps. Unfortunately this family isn’t really one of those open hearted families that help one another out. In this book Harry discovers that it was Voldemort that killed his parents and place a scar in his forehead.

I loved this story! I can now see why the Harry Potter series has been so wildly popular. I love stories that allow children to enjoy a fantasy world. At the same time, I loved the fact that Harry was the underdog who rises to the top. The book has themes of friendship, identity, and relationships with family.

A light hearted read about a very depressed little boy.

I feel that J.K. Rowling gets a little too busy emphasizing the fact that Harry Potter has no friends, no family, no future that the plot lacks at times.

I'm not one for band wagons and hype, but I definitely look forward to reading the subsequent tales of Harry Potter's adventures.

It didn't catch my attention. My friend said it gets better after the 3rd book, but I don't think I can continue to torture myself with another 2 books to read... Maybe one day, when I meet someone who really loves Harry Potter can tell me what's up... Not today.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVED this book! It was such a fun read-great characters, fast paced, and never a dull moment. I am soooooo glad I finally listened to my many "Potter-head students" and picked up this book.
