Harry Potter thinks he is an ordinary boy. He lives with his Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia and cousin Dudley, who are mean to him and make him sleep in a cupboard under the stairs. (Dudley, however, has two bedrooms, one to sleep in and one for all his toys and games.) Then Harry starts receiving mysterious letters and his life is changed forever. He is whisked away by a beetle-eyed giant of a man and enrolled at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The reason: Harry Potter is a wizard! The first book in the "Harry Potter" series makes the perfect introduction to the world of Hogwarts.
This book was an excellent book. I love the twists and turns throughout the book. I love how Hagrid is a gentle giant, like me. He is my favorite character so far. The chapters are exciting and keep you glued to the pages. J.K. Rowling is an awesome writer .
I give this book four top hats, because there are some circumstances where I don’t understand what is going on. I feel she could have explained some things a little bit more. For instance, when they go from one place to another instantly, I want to know how.
I am already on to book two.
