Overview
Now available in a deluxe paperback edition, this irresistible smaller format has been beautifully redesigned with selected full-color illustration highlights, bringing J.K. Rowling's storytelling genius and Jim Kay's artistic wizardry to a new generation of readers. Experience the wonder of boarding the Hogwarts Express for the first time, the warm glow of the Great Hall, and the excitement of Quidditch. Filled with magic on every page, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone will captivate wizards and Muggles alike.
(Please note: The fully illustrated edition is still available in hardcover under its original title, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.)
Harry Potter has never been the star of a Quidditch team, scoring points while riding a broom far above the ground. He knows no spells, has never helped to hatch a dragon, and has never worn a cloak of invisibility.
All he knows is a miserable life with the Dursleys, his horrible aunt and uncle, and their abominable son, Dudley - a great big swollen spoiled bully. Harry's room is a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs, and he hasn't had a birthday party in eleven years.
But all that is about to change when a mysterious letter arrives by owl messenger: a letter with an invitation to an incredible place that Harry - and anyone who reads about him - will find unforgettable.
