Summary: Wonderful Storytelling!
Review: Jim Dale does a fun and incredible job as narrator of the Harry Potter books. After listening to Sorcerer's Stone I immediately picked up the rest of the series. I admire how he comes up with different accents for the many characters. I even ordered the UK version from ..., and nice as those are, I think Jim Dale's version takes the cake - or pumpkin pasties!

Summary: Harry Potter and Jim Dale a perfect Combo
Review: Jim Dale is the perfect choice for the Harry Potter series. With his many voices for each character and perfect timing he makes it a joy to listen to the story of the teenage wizard, Harry Potter. Many people think this book is simply for the children but rest assured this book works on so many levels that it could be considered a book for the masses. I'm sure you will enjoy the books as much as my family and I have.

Summary: Magical and not just for Kids
Review: JK Rowling creates a fascinating world with wonderful characters. The reason why kids love these books so much is the fact that they feel like they can really imagine everthing taking place, and the reason for this is the fact that Rowling puts such wonderful imaginative detail. I loved it! And I will read the next 3 for sure!

Summary: I couldn't have told it better myself!
Review: JK Rowling has a knack for showing inner emotions of her characters, as well as justifying their responses to those emotions.
Harry Potter is a young man who has been living with abusive relatives following his parents deaths. His aunt and uncle treat him like a slave until he is set free by a school for wizards and witches.
He comes to find out that he is famous because, for some reason, the spell that was meant to kill him backfired and nearly destroyed the caster. He goes on to battle this ... e.
A good, quick read that everyone who gives it a chance will enjoy.

Summary: JK Rowling is Amazing!
Review: JK Rowling is amazing and so is this book! I really didn't think I could possibly enjoy a book - much less a 'kids' book - this much. The first time I picked up The Sorcerer's Stone, it was to read to my niece and she was already half way through the book. The words and names were so odd to me that I stuggled and didn't think it would be something I would ever want to read. But I gave in to the rage and borrowed the book from my niece when she was finished. Now I own all of the book in the series so far, have read them each twice and of course seen the movie. These are great books!! Thank you Rowling!!
