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.

my friend asked me which one I prefer: the sorcerers stone or the dealthy hallows. It was hard to chose because the sorcerers stone was the beggining of everything, but the dealthly hallows was the ending. Well now the cursed child is out, im not sure. But i think that they are ALL really good books and i recommend reading all of them.

This is my favorite book right now. I seriously can't believe anyone could right such a good book

I loved it. It is so my type. I love Hogwarts and all the Harry Potter books. If you like adventure, rule-breaking and saving the world then read Harry Potter
