Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J. K. Rowling

Harry Potter is your average 10 year old boy living in a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs in his aunt's and uncle's house.  Harry is just your average boy who is living a miserable life with the Dursleys overshadowed by his cousin, Dudley.  Harry is just an average boy who can talk to snakes. Wait!  He is just an average boy.  Isn't he?  Harry sure thinks so--he might even consider himself below average.

Until--the owls start showing up.  His aunt and uncle try to ignore them at first, but they just keep coming to let Harry know how special he is.  Harry is actually a wizard, and his aunt and uncle have hidden the truth from him his entire life.  Now that he has turned 11, he is old enough to enter Hogwarts, a school for young wizards.

And, his life is about to change.  Harry is far from average.  He is a celebrity in the wizarding world, but he has no idea why.

If you have never entered into this world with Harry Potter, I recommend that you check it out at your library.

By student suggestion, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is our book of the week.

Come by the library to enter to win a copy of this great read.
