Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Harry Potter lived in the Dursley's house with his rude, hateful, and mean cousin, aunt, and uncle. Until one day, a half-giant (Hagrid) came and told him he was a wizard, then took him to THE magic street that only wizards could see, Diagon Alley, to buy supplies for Harry's first year at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Before Hagrid told him, Harry did not know he was a wizard, and more importantly, the only one ever to survive the killing curse. When he got to Hogwarts, he gets placed in one of the four houses: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. He also meets two friends named Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Harry soon discovers Quidditch, a sport where people fly on broomsticks and make goals through hoops. He is made Seeker for his team. Seekers catch a little golden ball, earns the team 150 points, and ends the game. On Halloween night though, things start to get dangerous at Hogwarts.
I really liked this book. The author, J. K. Rowling, writes the most creative books I've ever read.
Rating- 5 stars
Wow, you write really well, Karen! HP & the Sorceror's Stone was a good choice of books to start with, too. I'm looking forward to your next review -- maybe HP #2, or something completely different?
