The book Harry Potter and The Sorcerer’s Stone is an excellent start to the Harry Potter series. The book begins by introducing our protagonist, Harry Potter, and how his life was with the Dursleys. Unfortunately, the Dursleys did not treat Harry kindly, to the point that he didn’t even have a bedroom. He lived in a cabinet under the stairwell of the home. One day, multiple owls came with letters inviting Harry to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Mr. Dursley didn’t like this, so he moved to a shack on an island where he thought he would be away from these strange letters. This did not work, since Hagrid came to get Harry Potter himself. The iconic quote, “You’re a wizard, Harry” was said here. Hagrid took Harry to get his school supplies at Diagon Alley. Afterwards, they went to the platform “9 3/4”. I think this was a very creative way to hide the magical world. It was called this to hide evidence of magic in the Muggle world. On the train ride to Hogwarts, Harry met his best friend Ron. After many events at school, Harry sees a hooded figure drinking unicorn blood. It was none other than Lord Voldemort. Voldemort wasn’t at his full power, so he needed the Sorcerer’s Stone to come back. His host was Quirrell, a teacher at Hogwarts. He lived on him and was very weak. Harry decides to find the stone before Voldemort to stop him from coming back. Check out this book in the Mission Viejo Library to learn how he does it. I would rate this book a 5/5 and I particularly enjoyed following the storyline and especially the uniqueness of each character.
