Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Bound for Schools & Libraries)
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Bound for Schools & Libraries) | Inc. Scholastic, J K Rowling, Mary GrandPr้
"This special edition of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has a gorgeous new cover illustration by Kazu Kibuishi. Inside is the full text of the original novel, with decorations by Mary GrandPre. "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. For it's there that he finds not only friends, aerial sports, and magic in everything from classes to meals, but a great destiny that's been waiting for him... if Harry can survive the encounter.

Breaking News for ALL Harry Potter Fans!

๐Ÿช„๐Ÿ“š๐ŸŽฌ๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ’.

DogMomIrene I‘m not usually a fan of reboots, but I‘ll be watching this oneโœจ 3w
AnnCrystal @DogMomIrene ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ’.

I usually give reboots a try just to weigh them against the original.

The best reboot I've seen lately was Fantasy Island on FOX TV. It only lasted for two seasons. I had never cared for any of the previous attempts to rebook this show until this one. Roselyn Sรกnchez played Elena Roarke, the niece to the original Fantasy Island's
Mr. Roarke which had been blayed by the legendary actor Ricardo Montalban.

๐Ÿ‘‡
3w
AnnCrystal It was more of a continuation that was respectful to the original storyline...

Miss that show.

With Harry Potter, I will have to wait for a DVD release...Hope it's good ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ˜‰.

๐Ÿ“š๐ŸŽฌ๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ‘.

DogMomIrene @AnnCrystal I liked the reboot for Battlestar Galactica years ago, but I think it‘s because I love science fiction and I was pretty young when the original came out. 3w
AnnCrystal @DogMomIrene ๐Ÿš€โœจ๐Ÿ“บโ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ’.

Wonder if it will be mostly a new generation who comes to the new Harry Potter TV series????

This story is one that I would love to get to read as a chapter book to one of my classes. It is so descriptive and shows how we can create the imaginative worlds and put them into writing. I think this would engage young readers and get the exciting about both reading and writing. You could also go off and create whole lessons in different subjects based on this book.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone is a wonderful speculative fiction book that follows Harry Potter who learns about a world of wizardry that he was born into on his 11th birthday. The first book looks into his first year at boarding school which is at a school for wizards, and introduces the magical world of Hogwarts and the friends and adventures he encounters along the way.

๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ I‘ve been trying to think all day about this and really can‘t think of much, maybe Hermione Granger is the one that comes to mind, especially since rereading this with our boys right now.

If I had gone to a boarding school, I would have wanted it to be Hogwarts. Or Beauxbatons, like Fleur Delacour.

Confession time: I‘ve never made it through Harry Potter, but I‘ve read Book 1 and part of Book 2 so long ago I can‘t really remember. I‘ve collected various versions (originals, illustrated, Kindle, audio, the set with Hogwarts on the spine), so I‘m all set to make it happen. Here we (the dogs and I) goโ€ฆ๐Ÿง™โ€โ™€๏ธ

Rereading the series with @ruthmoeller for the millionth time. It always brings me such comfort. I couldn‘t help noticing this time how incredible Mrs. Weasley and Hagrid are to Harry. Before either of them even know him well, they welcome him and make him feel like family with gifts at Christmas, kind words, and an understanding that he needs friends and not fans. Also, Hogwarts is a ridiculously dangerous school to send your kids to. ๐Ÿคฃ

After weeks of bailing on almost everything (this is only the 3rd book I‘ve finished this month which is unheard of for me), I decided to take the advice Littens always seem to give each other about ending book slumps - change genres or reread an old favorite. I decided to let Jim Dale reread HP for me. I don‘t think the slump is broken, but I am grateful for the comfort (re)read. Onward to Chamber of Secrets
