Summary: One of the GREATEST books in the World!
Review: Harry Potter is one person you would never meet. He is kind and daring. If there is something really important he will brake a school rule especially if a friend was hurt. Also Hermione is mad and sits in the girls bathroom and a troll is in the building. It finds Hermione, but Ron and Harry come to the rescue.It all started when Harry was left on the Dursley's doorstep. Then moved to Hogwarts. I liked this book, because it was very exciting and I loved the characters.

Summary: Great book!
Review: Harry Potter is one unusual twelve-year-old--and his story is funny, supernatural, and you can really relate to it--even if you never once rode a broomstick in your life!

Summary: Having Seen the Film and Read the Book . . .
Review: Harry Potter is orphaned as a baby and raised with a mean aunt and uncle and their incredibly spoiled son. However, his parents were a witch and a wizard, and he is destined to be a wizard. Despite the attempts by the aunt and uncle to suppress Harry's magical side, he ends up going to Hogwarts School of Magic, where many an adventure occurs."Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has the makings of a genuine classic. What I found surprising is the fact that I, at age 41, enjoyed it as much as I did. The writing is nearly flawless and, while reading it, the only thing that reminds you that this is a children's book is how quickly the pages fly by. Some of the humor is also definitely aimed at ages 9 to 12, content-wise, but not to a point of being a distraction. While I would not automatically endorse a book just because it is widely read by children and has generated as much interest in reading as has the Harry Potter series, I would definitely be predisposed to liking such a book. "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" fulfills the hope that started in me when I saw hordes of children lining up to buy books. This is good fiction, and can lay the groundwork for later introduction of more mature mythical reading, like "The Lord of the Rings". Some adults are concerned about the Harry Potter books because of the magical, supernatural content. This surprises me, as children are routinely bombarded with fictional characters and unreal stories, without adults organizing protests. Parents need to sit down regularly (not once) and discuss what the difference between fiction and reality is, including the much more realistic-appearing but fictional violence children see frequently on television and in movies. If a child reads a Harry Potter book and believes the magical content, then his or her parents have inadequately addressed the fiction-versus-reality issue with them. And, such a child, who believes the fiction he or she sees is real, is going to be harmed much more by other fictional content available to him and her than he or she is by Harry Potter and his very fictional-appearing magic. My recommendation: Relax, explain the concept of fiction to your children, label Harry Potter as clearly fictional, and let your children enjoy good, imaginative writing.

Summary: Hyperbole anyone?
Review: Harry Potter is soooooo coooool!!!!!!!!!! And everything that happens in the story could Really Happen!!!! Oh,the nurse is here to give me my medication now. There thats better. This really is a good read,especially for a first effort. But reading some of the other reviews,you would think that Amazon should change its name to Harry Potter.com and sell only books by J.K. Rowling!

Summary: Harry Potter; a real hero
Review: Harry Potter is such a real hero. Harry's not some super hero with amazing powers, (well for wizard standards). Harry is just a simple kid thrust into a world of unexpected surprises with a hint of danger around every corner. Harry shows such humility in the face of his fame. He also shows that even unexpected unpopular kids can one day do extraordinary things, and that there will always be a place for them in the world, even if they can't quiet get there on their own.
Harry Potter, the boy who lived, has never played a sport on a broomstick, eaten Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans, or seen a ghost fly through his classroom. In Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone, he is given a glimpse. Harry is now eleven and soon strange letters begin to arrive for him at the Dursleys, the awful muggles he lives with, and soon Harry is thrust into a world so magical and full of surprise he has only dreamed of such a place. That place is Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. That's right, Harry is a Wizard, and not just any wizard, Harry is the only survivor of the most evil dark wizard in history Lord Voldemort. Now, Harry must figure out what strange things are happening at the school and if they have any connection with Voldemort, while getting through all his homework.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, is spellbinding, with surprises of magic and adventure around every corner. This wonderful first book in this series will definitely ensnare the senses of all kids and adults alike.
