Harry Potter is a wizard almost killed by the greatest wizard of them all, Voldemort. His parents were klled and for 11 years he must live with his aunt and uncle, the Dursley's. On his 11th birthday he gets a visit from Hagrid, the game keeper of Hogswart, the school for witches and wizards. He learns about his past and who he is and goes to the school with Hagrid. There he meets friends, Ron and Hermoine, and they can't escape trouble around the school. They learn too much about the school and its secrets until they get involved in a serious and dangerous mystery where Harry will meet once again whith the person who killed his parents.

Once faced with Voldemort he escapes death again and is the hero of the school. This book was very enjoyable. It is a wild ficticious tale about magic and adventure. My favorite character was Harry Potter. He isn't the perfect Angel, but he is a good kid anyway. He is so happy to find out that he is a wizard. He is so nice ! to those smaller than him and those who get picked on. He tries to understand people and their actions.

MY favorite part is when Harry win the Quidditch match for his House and shows that he is just as good as his father was. I think this book is for anyone who has a large imagination. Even if you do not think you would enjoy a book about magic you should still read the book. Nothing like this book has ever been written and you don't know if you like something new if you don't try it. This book is for all ages. If you're young have someone read it to you. If you are old this book is just fun to read on your own. I really enjoyed this book and most people do so read Harry Potter and the Sorcerors Stone!
