It is a good book to get wrapped into. It tells the story of a young boy named Harry, who's parents were killed by a dark wizard named Voldemort, ( You Know Who) Harry ismarked with a curse by Voldemort and is forced to live with his muggle aunt, uncle, and cousin. ( muggle: non magical people). He then is swept away by Hagrid when Harry is 11 and taken to a magic school called Hogwarts. He meets new friends along the way. Also, there are 6 more books to the series, I recomend that you read them, especially the last one. ( )

i like it. it as alot of action in the book

I've read this book three times. There is always something new that one can learn from rereading the series. ( )

I'm surprised it took me so long to read this;I never had time to read it when it first came out. I learned a few things about wizardry and found that I actually liked Harry Potter. He is very ingenious to use the invisibility cloak to help transport Norbert and find the sorcerer’s stone. When hearing about Nicholas Flamel, I didn’t realize that this was an actual person, a legendary alchemist who lived centuries ago. Michael Scott, Irish writer, has begun a six-part series for teens about Nicholas Flamel. I’m sure the Harry Potter fans would like to look into this book, the first in the series: The Alchemyst: The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel. ( )

I haven't read this book in more than eight years, and so had a few surprises because I knew the movie so well. It was so much fun to see the trimuvirate at age 11, and the Quidditch announcing of Lee Jacobs isn't to be missed. Hysterical. ( )
