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.

Commercially Great, Critically not so great

High Quality Literature as well as a High Dollar Earner

eternal-rapture says:

I remember the first time I read this book and I thought it was the greatest thing ever. Granted, I was 11 years old at the time and therefore believe that on the 1st of september, when I would be starting secondary school, I would be informed at the last minute that I would in fact be attending Hogwarts.

Obviously, this never happened, but my school DOES happen to be an old castle on the edge of a cliff, so I suppose I got closer than most.
