This is the first and one of the best Harry Potter books in the series. This first book introduces the reader to the fantasy world of a boy named Harry Potter who's an orphan as his parents were killed by an evil wizard Voldemort. This is a very interesting book as it explains about Harry's thoughts and secrets. We are introduced to different characters like his friends; Ron and Hermione. This book has a great action plan at the end and love how the points gained at the end changed the results from Gryffindor being last to being first. It's a story basically about good vs evil. It's full of fantasy and magic for all children. This first book urges me to read the whole series. Overall I recommend reading this book for all ages but particularly children.  - @The_Dark_Knight of the Teen Review Board at the Hamilton Public Library Harry Potter's evil aunt and uncle keep him in a closet under the stairs with barely enough food. One day, he ends up conversing with a snake and a mysterious letter from a school addressed to Harry is delivered by an owl. Then ten more letters. Then 100. Then 1000. All delivered by owls. His aunt and uncle are determined to not let him read one of them. Little did he know that his life was about to change forever. - @bookworm2.1k of the Teen Review Board at the Hamilton Public Library The Harry Potter series are a bit hard to read, but pretty cute and cozy. The Sorcerer’s Stone isn’t my favourite but it’s a wonderful beginning to the series, with Rowling opening up the wizarding world to new readers. Harry Potter himself is a very good protagonist who has confidence issues, and is a little indecisive, making him unique and not bland. I’ve read this book many times, it’s enjoyable and extremely popular. - @SecretBlossom of the Teen Review Board of the Hamilton Public Library
