I have never heard about this book until last night. I am a Chinese girl and I don't know whether I can buy one in China. Actually I have been eager to have one from the time I saw the cover, which attracted me very much. It is a great book. I dare to say that even I haven't read it.

I have to give you credit. This book is the only book that I really like reading. I am 14 years old. I really didn't like reading until Christmas of 1999. I received, as a gift, Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone. I saw how thick it was and I didn't want to read it, …more

At first I didn't like the idea of a Wizard at school, but when I started to read the book, I was transported to an amazing world filled with magic and adventure. By the end I was determined to read the second book in the series!!!!!!!!!!

It is the one of the most fantastic books I have ever read. My older brother even bought his own. J.K. Rowling is so fantastic, a junior Tolkien and Dahl combined!!!

I love this book. I could read it over and over. I have recommended many people of all ages to read this book. Just because it is a children's book doesn't always mean that it is just for children.

I read the Harry Potter books three times in five months--My mother and sister wanted me to read to them because I kept telling them how wonderful the books are. My favorite thing to do now is to ask people who have read this book who their favorite character is. J. K. …more

I thought that Harry Potter #1 was the best because then you met Harry and everything you needed to follow the rest of the story. And for all of the fantastic people. I have heard that she is coming out with a movie about Harry in the summer of either 2001 or 2002

The Harry Potter series are definitely on my list of books to read to my children which already includes Laurence Yep's Dragon of the Lost Sea series, The Chronicles of Narnia, and the Wrinkle in Time Series. Harry Potter is going down in history as a classic!

I've read all the Harry Potter books, and I think they are great! At the end the most unexpected always happens! I can always relate with how the characters (Hermoine, Ron,and Harry) are feeling. Harry Potter is a wonderful series for readers of all ages.-Jennica

It was the second best book I have ever read. Spectacular. If anyone who hasn't read it should because it is packed with adventure, drama, surprises, and MAGIC. I recommend for anyone who has never sat down to read it, they should.
