Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone
Thoroughly enjoyed. It has a good story and lots of very interesting characters. Would recommend to both children and adults.

I always forget how much better the books are than the movies, especially in the beginning. Great for any age!
Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone
Have started reading the books. I just bought the complete collection and look forward to reading the rest of the books.
Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone
As I flew on my broomstick through the magical mind of Harry Potter I noticed that not only had it taken mind off of where I was and was happening around me, but that I was taking a journey that no other book has taken me on before. Harry Potter is a book not only about magic and spells, but it also shows the true beauty that authors can show through their unbelievable talents. If I had the power to speak to whoever reads this and personally convice them that this book is full of wonders and morals that they must uncover, I most definetly would without a moment's hesitation. While I read about magic, spells, and charms, I felt J.K. Rowling put a spell on this book to make her writing so unique yet breath taking. In all the books I have read, most of them seem like the author was losing his or her talents towards the end of the book. J.K. Rowling never left me bored or wanting to put the book down. In most books I count the pages I have left until the book is finished. In Harry Potter I counted the pages I read, never wanting it to end. J.K. Rpowling's writing style never failed to amaze me throughout the whole book. No matter what chapter I was on, I kept telling myself, I wish all the children in the world could read this book just to show that books can tell you the true beauty of friendship, courage, anmd kindness. This story, I guarantee, will sweep you off your feet and into a world of enchantment.

As a Grandmother of a seven year old and a nine year old who have thoroughly enjoyed discovering Harry Potter, I decided to meet him also. What a treat. Not only is the writing great but there is a real moral thread throughout. Responsibility and loyalty are just two of the character traits demonstrated in a very entertaining manner. My only reservation is that some younger children might find the evil scenes overwhelming. Parents might want to preview the book before reading it to their little ones.

Before you start thinking that this is just a book for kids think again. If you have any kind of an imagination whatsoever you will love this book - whether you are 7 or 70. Fact - there are no wild romances here, you will not discover the meaning of life nor will you find a solution to stavation in bi-africa but you will have an absolutely marvelous time accompanying Harry Potter to Hogswort school for Witches and Wizards. Obviously, if you believe that reading about magic, dragons, giants and ghosts will send you straight to hell then don't buy this book. This book gets a big "Thumb's Up" from me! Do yourself and the kid inside you a favour and read it!
