Summary: Pure Fun!
Review: Harry Potter (and the Sorcerer's Stone) is a really fun book. The way J.K. Rowling discribes the events, places, and actions that Harry, his friends, and eniemes visit and do make the book even more hulariuos. The detail of the three-headed monster, Hagard, and all the characters gives it more depth. What also makes the book more fun and interesting is the way each character, no matter how small has strenghs and weaknesses. This book is pure fun for kids (and adults) of all ages. If you liked this book then you might consider these. The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien; books by John Bellairs; The Golden Compass and other books by Philip Pullman. I would strongly suggest the four books by Madeleine L'engle.

Summary: A Magical Story
Review: Harry Potter always thought he was a regular boy, after all he had grown up in a muggle household, with his aunt Petunia, and her husband, along with his awful cousin Dudley. They had treated Harry awful since the day Haggred had dropped Harry off on their door step. They forced harry to sleep in a cupboard (closet)under the stairs. As Harry got older, he began to notice little odd things about himself, for instance, when Dudley and his "gang" were chasing Harry, he would end up on the roof of the school. Finally the day had come, Harry, being a magician, was sent to his new school, Hogwarts Acadamy, Harry met many new people, and friends, and encountered many troublesome experiences, to find out what happened read Harry Potter And The Sorcerers Stone. I give it 5 stars

Review: Harry Potter and his adventures at Hogwarts make this book a must read. The teachers, Harry's friends, and Harry's enemies make the story exciting and impossiible to put down. When Harry finds out he is a wizard he is astonished, and your astonished with him. J. K. Rowling is one of the best writers of all times.

Summary: An incredible story suitable for all ages
Review: Harry Potter and his adventures make for a fine read, be ye 12 or 112, and anyone in-between. Ignore the short-sighted, narrow-minded fools who seek to ban these books because they "harbor an interest in the occult"...please! Nothing could be furthur from the truth. I'm sure Alice in Wonderland and the Wizard of Oz faced similar opposition. The books stand for freindship, teamwork and self-sacrifice, and deal with some very real-world issues like an orphan growing up in not the most ideal environment, and still managing to become a decent kid in the process. These are values I don't mind my eleven year old reading about. And ANY book that encourages a child to read and excite the imagination like these books do, must be supported. As a parent and a reader, I give Harry Potter and J.K. Rowlings two enthusiastic thumbs up!

Summary: Absolutely magical... for all ages
Review: Harry Potter and his friends at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry weave a captivating tale of mischief and mystery. Since this is the first in a series, it is dialogue-driven and the story really progresses fast. However, Ms. Rowling is such a great author that there are surprises around every corner. This book is full of nothing but good. It is a quality book and teaches children the basic good versus evil conflict. This is a must read for every American who has ever dreamed to reach above the ordinary.

Summary: We absolutely love this book!
Review: Harry Potter and his friends, Hermoine and Ron, took my children (8 & 11) and me on an incredible reading adventure, the likes of which have not been seen since The Wizard of Oz! We couldn't wait to read it each night. I found I would read ahead after they had fallen asleep as I didn't want to put it down. Highly recommended for all ages.

Review: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets
J.K. Rowling
Brief summary: this book is about a kid named Harry potter who discovers that he is a wizard and can perform magic and spells. He goes to a school in which to harness these powers which his uncle forbids called Hogwarts. There at the school harry makes two friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley and they suspect that their dark arts defense teacher Prof. Snape is planning something evil. They follow him around school facing trials and tribulations, using spells magic and know-how to save themselves from what they've already gotten themselves in to.
I liked this book basically because it was full of magic I guess. I mean Its really not the type of book I read often, considering that I don't read much anyway, but the thing is, it was O.K. It had its highs and lows and I'm not allowed to disperse the most of them because they would ruin it for someone else. Anyway, I dislike it in the fact that this book takes so much credit from other books, there are other books about other things but they don't get an 1111212123243th of the credit.
Would I recommend it? Eh, maybe given the right circumstances and asked the right way I would but it would really depend on the type of person asking. Not to be judgmental an all it's just that I don't think a pro wrestler would go about reading this book rather than to my fellow classmates.
