Rating: Summary: If you haven't read this book yet, YOU'RE CRAZY! Review: For those of you lucky people who have read this book, good for you. If you haven't, why not? This is the best book in the world; on a scale of 1-10, I would give it an 11 it's so good. It's about a wizard boy named Harry whose parents died in an accident he was a baby. Now, he is sent to live with his mean aunt and uncle and his cousin Dudley who are not wizards and hate Harry for being one. Harry doesn't know he's a wizard, until a giant named Hagrid brings him to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. There, he makes friends, enemies, and gets into a magical adventure that has to do with the Sorceror's Stone! But I won't tell you what happens next!This is not a bad book, as some people may think. Just because it has witchcraft and evil in it, it doesn't have really bad things like sex, violence, or drugs. It's just a book with magic with a little bit of humor and excitement. So, if you're convinced now that Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone is a good book, GO READ IT!
Rating: Summary: HP and The Sorcerer's Stone Collector Edtion is worth the $ Review: For those who don't have Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone(or those who do, but like it a lot), this is the best choice. It is elegant (I refer to it as beutiful), has golden-glided pages, and is a magical experience everybody should read. Why waste so much money on a Collector's Edition? You might think, but it is worth it. Because you'll fully enjoy the HP experience, and if you don't like it, due to limited production, in a not-so-far future, you might sell it for a lot more than what you paid for. Anyway, the hand-drawn picture of Harry with the Dursleys is something every HP fan shpuld see.
Rating: Summary: Read this book. Review: For those, who think "I saw the movie, I don`t need to read the book." Wrong, our Schools and local libraies,are making a big mistake. by not encouraging our youth. to read the books upon which, their favorite movies are based. Overall this is a fun book,and there are scenes in the movie that are confusing, if you haven`t read the book.My advice: read the book, then see the movie again; you'll enjoy it more.
Rating: Summary: We couldn't put it down. Review: For years I've been trying to get my twelve year old to have a love for reading like me. This book has helped significantly. He's begging to read the whole series. Yesssssssssss!
Rating: Summary: Geez, some people! Review: For your information, the Harry Potter books are numbers 1,2, and 3 on the New York Times bestseller list. I really love them, and of the many people that I know who have read them, none have had urges to become witches or wizards.
Rating: Summary: A FAMILY ACTIVITY Review: Forget reading for 20 minutes a night! Once you start reading Harry Potter you'll find that you and your kids want to devote whole evenings to reading it! They'll choose Harry over TV any night! One evening we read 90 pages, two hours aloud. The time just flew by. My son says he loves Harry Potter because he feels like he is inside the story when we read about Harry and his incredible adventures. The book is creative and well written with vivid details that captivate the reader and take us to a wonderful fantasy land!
Rating: Summary: A Wonderful Book!!!! Review: Found this book on the bookshelf amongst the adult book in a bookstore. Thought it sounded fun and interesting and decided to buy it, not knowing it's really a children's book. I truly enjoyed it as it's fun, interesting, mystical and magical. Truly enjoyable reading. Fought my 12-year old daughter a large part of the summer to get her to read it as her love for reading wasn't there just then. Finally she gave in as I made it an ultimatum. She now dreams Harry Potter and everything is the books. For the first time in her life I can truly say that she plows through books. She couldn't wait to read the second and third book and is going insane waiting for number 4.... Read this book with your child!!!!
Rating: Summary: Only the lonely can play..... Review: Frankly, I felt that this book was nothing more than childish reading for the immature adult who never paid attention in English class. Although I am only 14, and do not have the wisdom that most adults are assumed to have, I unlike my peers did not finish this book in anticipation and page-turning excitement. I understood this reading as something everyone can read, from 2 to 52... ranging in knowledge. I have read many a book in my 14 years of living, and this has to be the only one that I refused to finish.
Rating: Summary: Amazing Review: From moment I opened this book I couldn't close it. J.K Rowling writing one of the best novels I've ever read. She has such an amazing imagination. She comes up with great names for her characters. This book is not just for children.
Rating: Summary: The best book I've ever read Review: From my son, Alex (six years old): "When I first saw the cover of Harry Potter, I didn't think I would like it; but when I started reading it, I thought it was great because Harry Potter kept getting into great adventures."
