Book 71: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

In honor of the twentieth anniversary of the release of the first Harry Potter book, I decided to re-read the original series this month.

In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by Rawling, eleven year old Harry has managed to survive the last ten years living with the Dursley family.  After his Uncle Vernon refuses to allow him to open his invitation from Hogwarts, Hagrid being him the letter personally and takes him shopping for school supplies in Diagon Alley.  Then it's off to school, making friends, studying all kinds of subjects, becoming the Gryffindor seeker, and trying to solve the mystery of what Hagrid removed from Gringotts and who is trying to steal it.

A entertaining tale for all ages. 5 stars.
