Summary: Oh, please....
Review: The modern American mentality remains a puzzle to me. Kids should know everything about sex at the age of three, because that`s 'real life', but reading about a little bit of magic will twist their minds. Oh, sure. Got it.Huh! What makes this book any more harmful to your kid than books by Edward Eager and E. Nesbit? And if you think THOSE are harmful as well, then you really have a problem. Kids aren`t stupid. They know witches and wizards don`t exist. Stories such as this feed their imaginations, which at that age are certainly hungrier than their sex instincts. Stop underestimating your kids` intelligence and mixing up your priorities. Of course, I`m 18 and I love the Harry Potter books. And I still remain grateful to my parents for 'allowing' me to read fairy tales.

Summary: You've got to read it!
Review: The most exciting book ever! I have read this book once and I think it is the most exciting book I have ever read. This book also has lots of twists and turns. The name of this book is Harry Potter and the Sorcerer Stone. This book was about a wizard boy named Harry Potter who goes to a wizardry school. While he is there he gets into a lot mischief but always manages to escape. One time he was walking around at night when he was not supposed to but somehow he escaped. Another time is when he went to fight one of his enemies at night and somehow he also got away with it. I chose this book because people were telling me what a great read this was. So I read the book and since I liked it so much I am now recommending it to other people.

Summary: A Harry Potter Reveiw
Review: The movie Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is not your everyday fairy-tale. It is about a boy named, Harry Potter who survived the deadly spell of an evil wizard, Voldemort. Now he's eleven years old and has recieved a letter from Hogwarts, a school of witchcraft and wizardry. If you were to compare this movie to the book which it originated from, you'd find out that the book has more informational background.
The author of this book is, J.K. Rowling. She was a poor, single mother before the Scottish Arts Council enabled her to continue writing the book. She has also written three other books of the Harry Potter series. (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.)
The interesting parts of this movie is when Harry, Ron, and Hermione were playing wizard's chess, fighting the troll in the girls' restroom, and when Harry was playing Quidditch were probably my favorite scenes in the movie because they were full of action and there were surprises around every corner.
This movie best fits preteens at the age of twelve and younger to about age six or just anyone who likes fantasy stories because this movie is full of things that kids like. Such as the castle, dragon, ghosts, magic, and the sport Quidditch.

Summary: This book was terrific.
Review: The nonstopping trouble that Harry Potter and his friends Ron and Hermione get into make up a great book. This book is humurous and uplifting. Even though it was fantasy I believed everyword.

Summary: A New World of Magic
Review: The novel Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone, by J.K. Rowling creates a new world for anyone who wants to believe. J.K. Rowling introduces fantasy early in the novel, capturing the reader's interest and creating a magical world in the reader's mind that seems very real. Rowling's style captivates the reader through action, humor, and fun. The story lets the reader take a magical trip through a magical land of witches and magic, good and evil. The story is filled with imaginative details, but Rowling's vivid descriptions make this magical new world a real place in the mind of the reader. It is a magical world where every fantasy and dream is possible. The characters are described so well that the reader can actually see them in his/her head. Even though much of the story deals with the supernatural, Rowling keeps he character's feelings and personalities on a human level. The novel is extremely well written with great detailed descriptions of characters and settings. This fantasy is most enjoyable for both kids and adults. This story allows the reader to escape into a fantasyland, and the story allows both children and adults to engage their imaginations. The fantasy is a page-turner because J.K. Rowling does a wonderful job of creating suspense. Overall, Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone is a charming fantasy that everyone should experience at least once.

Summary: Harry is a hero
Review: The novel of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone is something that I read in Children's Liturature this semester. I was never aware of the entire contraversey about the series of books before we read them in class and then had a group discussion about what we liked and dissliked. We pretended to have a town meeting to agree or not to have the books in our school classrooms. We split into teams and the each assumed a role for a person that would typically be at a town meeting. From there the debate began and boy did people relly get into their character! We brought up the normal topics about wether it is pushing withcraft or sorcery to our young students. But we also talked alot about the positive effcts of having something that is so out of this world in the classroom for our children to read. By the end of the pretty heated debate there was almost a total agreement that the book is a great way to entice a vivid imagination, but that it should not be read a aloud for every studnt to be required to listen to, but to be left on the reading shelf for volenteer reading time. The aspects of differect "cultures " in a class are already evident why not bring in a fantasy culture to to class?

Summary: Just Amazing
Review: The only reason I got this book in the first place, was because it came in a set with other books that I wanted in a book order at school. I simply put it in the back of my bookshelf when I got it in the mail and didn't look at it for several months. Then, on a snow day while school was closed I had nothing to do. I looked through my room and found Harry Potter. I read the first few chapters and became HOOKED! Just as I finished the first one I went out and bought the second. Two years later, I had read the third and second books at least two times. Sonething about leaving your troubles behind by going on a train far away and meeting new friends was a universal dream that most people have wished for. I've now seen the movie and waiting for the fifth novel of the series!
