A Brief Overview of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

 

The Sorcerer's Stone is the first novel in J.K. Rowling's Internationally best-selling Harry Potter Series. Telling the story of Harry's First Year in Hogwarts, The Sorcerer's Stone is where you first get introduced to Harry, Hermione, Ron and the Rest of the Wizarding World.



In the UK the original book was released as 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone' which I think is a much better title. However, when Scholastic Books Americanized the book, the title was changed.
