Summary: eric's review
Comment: If you like fictional stories alive with mythical beings and magic,
you'll love Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. J.K. Rowling paints the
story brilliantly in each chapter. From the normal muggles to the
fantastic wizard world, you feel as though you yourself might someday obtain
magical powers as well. When I read this story I felt a pang of envy and
jealousy. I wish I could fly in a train to school, walk through an
invisible wall, test out for my perfect wand, and watch my delicious
chocolate frog hop away from me, well maybe not that last one. I might settle
for our normal muggle sweets, easier to KEEP my snack, and the thought of
placing a wriggly frog in my mouth is just ew, Though this book was
meant for younger children, I found myself falling in love with it. Never a
dull moment in each page, I could hardly place my book down. Though
fantasy, this book seems almost possible. Harry faced with the same
problems we might face now, but find escape into the magical Hogswart. This
book has the works, the magical flying brooms, dragons, giants, cauldrons,
you name it. But they add some spice to it with quidditch, the magical
diagon alley, and the goblin banking systems. If you are looking for an
escape from reality, that's not too unbelievable, you'll find every form
of magic in this book. I love the way you see Harry grow as he battles
he-who-must-not-be-named while at the same time finding much meaning to
his life. He plays a difficult role as a muggle, a fresh wizard, friend,
hero, enemy to the most feared wizard, and find time to do his studies
and learn more magic. As you read Harry's experiences and watch him
learn, you learn as well and experience just as much as he does. J.K. Rowling
really captures the reader into this book.

Summary: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Comment: Harry Potter has lived a dismal life with his aunt and uncle, the Dursleys. He sleeps in a closet and has never had a birthday party or Christmas presents. Even worse, he has to endure life with his horrible spoiled cousin, Dudley. Then on Harry's eleventh birthday, things change when a letter arrives, (by owl), inviting him to attend the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Suddenly Harry finds himself among friends, learning about potion-making and magic-wand waving and broomstick riding. There're chocolate frogs and Every Flavor Beans and a three-headed dog and Quidditch-a game better than soccer. Also, Hagrid, a lovable gamekeeper who befriends Harry; Hermione Granger, a witch who's read all the school books and knows all the rules; and there's Ron Weasly, Harry's best friend who has quite a legacy of his own to fill. Hogwarts treats him well, even with the abomidable Malfoy's mean tricks or Professor Snape's obvious hatred of Harry. The soon Harry finds himself in the middle of a mystery at Hogwarts, and together with his two new friends, embarks on adventures he never dreamed possible.
The book is engaging with its imagery, humor, plot twists and real-life child problems. The book doesn't only appeal to children but adults as well. She's a master on fantasy. She really can, with no difficulty at all, think herself back to 11 years old. You will love the whimsical descriptions, humorous quotes and the fun characters.

Comment: I like Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone because it is extremly funny and the charecters say very silly things. It is very cool when they use magic.
