This special edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone has a gorgeous new cover illustration by Kazu Kibuishi. Inside is the full text of the original novel, with decorations by Mary GrandPré.
Harry Potter has never been the star of a Quidditch team, scoring points while riding a broom far above the ground. He knows no spells, has never helped to hatch a dragon, and has never worn a cloak of invisibility.
All he knows is a miserable life with the Dursleys, his horrible aunt and uncle, and their abominable son, Dudley — a great big swollen spoiled bully. Harry’s room is a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs, and he hasn’t had a birthday party in eleven years.
But all that is about to change when a mysterious letter arrives by owl messenger: a letter with an invitation to an incredible place that Harry — and anyone who reads about him — will find unforgettable.
For it’s there that he finds not only friends, aerial sports, and magic in everything from classes to meals, but a great destiny that’s been waiting for him… if Harry can survive the encounter.

I LOVE Harry Potter!!! J.K. Rowling does a great job on making you feel like your either Harry's best friend, worst enemy, or everyday aquaintance. She also does a great job on making you see, hear, and even feel the setting. Harry Potter is an amazing book and I hope more and more people keep reading it every day. I can't believe this is just the first book out of seven!!
There is actually a school in Scotland called Hogwarts, of course it does not teach witchcraft and wizardry.
