ok lahl2442om your wrong. this is a great book. it's imaginative and kids will actually read it even when they don't read that much.

This book is excellently written. It gives children a whole new world to experience. Rowling captured the character of Harry in the book very well, he was a nice 3D character with a lot of in-depth feelings. The other characters were also well defined. I liked this book and think it's good for kids because it lets them see that even if you're new to something, you should give it a try. Harry was new to Hogwarts, being a wizard and playing quiddith, but he overcame all that and turned out to be quite good, while still having lots of fun. It's a good message.

The Sorcerer's Stone is a great book, no two ways about it. You will like no matter how old you are. My mom loves them too. This is a great introductory book. The books get progressively more complex and imaginitive. I can't wait for the next few books. The book is about a boy who is introduced to the magical world which was taken from him when he was but a baby. Now he is attending a magic school, and loves it. But there are some problems surrounding the story he was told about his parents death. Well, you figure it out...

I don't really like the way that the Tri-wizard cup ended. I don't think it was right for Cedric to die. He never did anything to Voldemort. It made me mad! Otherwise, over all it was a REALLY good book and I can't wait for number 5!!!

Oh my. What a great read! A lot of fun. My ten year old son is devouring this series, and now LOVES to read. He recently said that all day long at school he's counting down until his 15 minute reading break, so he can find out what happens next. This, from a kid with 152 cable channels, who never has to wait for his favorite shows to come on, because they're on SOMEWHERE pretty much all the time. Makes my heart warm!!! I read the book, in one sitting each. Couldn't put them down. Can't wait for number four. Worth the money, worth the hype. Makes reading COOL again. Thanks, Ms. Rowling for an incredible series.

Excellent characters and fun story. Makes me wish I were a witch! A fun read for adults as well as kids.

Fabulous reading for ages 3-103!! Captivating!

I am a 20 year old female and I find the Harry Pottter seriers very good. They are th types of books you just cant put down.

My 10 year old loved this book, but it was too scary for my six year old. He said it gave him bad dreams. I thought it was a wonderful story, very well written and I can't wait to read any of her future publications. We've already read the first 3 Harry Potter books.

This book has an excellent story and is a great introduction to a new character. It's not just for kids... it's for EVERYONE!!

Harry Potter is a great series. At 19, I have read a lot of children's books and I should know. Rowlings gives a hint of the magic of Roald Dahl but with her own twist.

Uggh! I can't believe the hype this book is getting. It's a nice enough story but hardly as imaginative as I had hoped. Don't waste your time!

This is the kind of charming stuff we need more of. It's probably true that advertizing has gone a long way in putting this on the bestseller list, it's deservedly there. There should NOT be a movie- let kids read!!

What an imagination!! This story would translate wonderfully to film--kind of like another Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (adding a fantasy dimension to an exaggeratedly drudging reality). I'm hooked on Harry.

Very entertaining. Certainly NOT for kids only.
