320 pages · First published 1997
Neglected orphan Harry Potter learns on his eleventh birthday that he is a wizard famous for surviving the attack that killed his parents. At Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he finds his first true friends in Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger while discovering classes, Quidditch, and a world hidden from ordinary people. A forbidden corridor and a mysterious stone draw the trio into a puzzle connected to the dark wizard who marked Harry as a baby. Wonder-filled and adventurous, this series opener suits readers who enjoy magical schools, chosen family, friendship, mysteries, and young heroes discovering that love and courage can matter more than power.
