Harry Potter is in his second year at Hogwarts now and before he leaves he
receives a strange visitor. This visitor tells Harry that Hogwarts will not be
safe this year. And when Harry arrives there he finds out his visitor at Privet
Drive was right. An unseen something is stalking students and Harry is the only
one who can hear it before it attacks. Can this be the end of Hogwarts? Read
the book and find out.

I love Harry Potter but I found that this book was the least intriguing out of all of them. It didn't grab me as much as the others. It was way to much like book one Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone. I would give it a 3.5 out of five

First I want to mention that this book, was the most interesting one I have ever read, and also the Prisoner of Azkaban, now I am reading The Goblet of fire and I found it much more interesting than the last. Whatever I love the second book because it was really mysterious, the vocabulary so easy and they are big but the content is really interesting I've read 100 pages in one day. Here in Peru are also in Spanish but I prefer to read them in English because maybe the truduction is not the same as the original. Well nothing more, but expecting the fifth book to be better than the last.

I'm a nine year old girl who reads a lot of books and found Harry Potter books to be the best, most exciting and thrilling in the whole history of the world (in my opinion). Every time I open up one of these wonderful books, its like I'm entering a new and exciting world where I am the ruler! Thank you Ms Rowlings, I can't wait till the 5th book comes out!!

This book is amazing! I couldn't put it down. I am currently reading the third in the series and I definitely plan on reading the whole series and can't wait for the movie and remainder of the series to come out! J.K.Rowling is an amazing author with new surprises in every book!

I'm 8, I have been reading Harry Potter books half of my life. and I think it is a great book because I love all the adventures. I am up to the book HARRY POTTER and the goblet of fire.
