Summary: harry potter and the sorcerers stone is a great book
Review: John Lyver 1/21/2001 p.4 Harry Potter and Sorcerers Stone is a wonderful book about the life of a young wizard. The book was fairly easy to read and went pretty fast. It will pull you into a world of fantasy full of magic, wizards, witches, spells and humor. The book will keep you reading from beginning to end. The characters are well developed and very colorful and humorous. The book goes into great detail of the magical items Harry buys in order to start his wizardry schooling. He first takes a magical journey just to buy his supplies by traveling through a wall into diagon alley. The pure magic of this young boy will pull you in. His power as an infant stopped Voldemont the most powerful wizard in the world. It will keep you laughing as he explains that before he even discovered his power it always saved him in weird and mysterious ways.

Summary: Wow!
Review: Just 2 words...pure genius. J.K. Rowling is an amazing woman that writes amazing books! I had always thought that the book was dumb so i never bothered to read it. One day sitting around doing nothing my sister handed it to me and said "Read it, even if you don't like it." So i decided since i had nothing else better to do to read it and it blew me away! If i ever meet Ms. Rowling i'll kiss her and buy her a car (even though she probably wouldn't need it). Although there is only 5 stars i give it 6!

Summary: Loved it - and had no idea it was a book for kids
Review: Just a quick review to say that I had no idea this was considered a children's book until I looked up info on other books by Rowling. Looking back on it, it certainly wasn't difficult to read, but it was a great story and with wonderful characters. Can't wait until my daughter is old enough to read it (but I'll have to buy another copy because I just shipped mine to my sister in Germany).

Summary: ABSOLUTE MUST READ!
Review: Just as my heading indicates, this book is one of the best fantasy novels I read in my life. Even though some might consider this novel as immature and childish, you will have to check that again!...this book is made to enjoy from children to adults, and all would definitely enjoy it. J.K. Rowling is a marvelous and creative author for sure. He reminds me of Roald Dahl's type of writing in which the words try to create imaginary shapes through one's minds. I was able to read all four of the series, and each one is good as the other. So, if you started reading Part I, you can be sure to continue on with the next three books. Again, a book definitely worth to read.

Summary: Enchanting!
Review: Just finished this book, and I can't wait to read the next two! I can see already that the Harry Potter books are going to rank right up there with the Chronicles of Narnia as books that are well worth a re-read, no matter how old or young you are. No doubt, everyone will wish they could do their graduate work at Hogwarts! The characters are well-developed, the environments are detailed, letting you imagine exactly what everything must look like--definitely a fantastic debut for this new writer. I can't say enough great things about this book!

Summary: Excellent read-aloud.
Review: Just finished this marvelous book. It will be a read-aloud for my sixth grade class in the fall. It's so important that one of the main characters is a strong female with her own ideals about how to succceed in life. The book truly lets you use your imagination conjuring up what flying a broomstick is like and what it would entail to raise a baby dragon. I can't wait to read the next book in the series.

Summary: Very Good Book
Review: Just what is it about Harry Potter? He and his lovely author have incited a reading revolution at a time when reading has been considered on a perpetual decline. Why do children love him so? More importantly, why do so many *adults* love him? First off, 11-year-old Harry Potter makes the perfect hero for a children's story. His parents are dead and he lives with his cruel aunt and uncle. When Harry discovers that his parents were wizards and that he will attend the Hogwarts school to learn to become a wizard himself, his life takes a wonderful turn for the better. Problem is, his aunt and uncle have hidden from him just what and who his parents were. Little Harry has no idea how famous they were (in wizard circles) and how famous he is. In this first book in what has become a real publishing phenomenon, we come really to cheer the (at first reluctant) heroism of Harry and his friends at the delightfully quirky Hogwarts school. As the story progresses, Harry's resolve strengthens as he learns how special he is. What keeps the reader frantically turning the pages is the suspense that Miss Rowling deftly builds chapter after chapter. Will Harry be victorious? Will his courage and resolve continue to grow and thrive? So why do so many adults respond so favorably to Harry Potter? After all, this is *children's* literature. I think that adults love Harry Potter for the same reasons that children do. Harry Potter is a true hero. Since authors of adult fiction have long since abandoned heroism, something had to fill the void. As young readers of the Harry Potter books grow up, perhaps they will demand the return of romanticism in fiction. Perhaps they will discover the great romantic writers like Ayn Rand and Victor Hugo. Perhaps they will even write their own stories and novels about people, places and events that can and should exist. Until then, we still have Harry Potter. In closing, there are two words I would like to say to Miss Rowling: thank you.
