Childrens Book Publisher
  • Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry’s eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!

I really enjoyed this book because it had a great plot and was set in a magical fantasy word which you can immerse yourself into and forget reality. I also liked it because the characters were interesting. My favourite character was Ron. I liked Ron particularly because he loves animals and is quite funny. I would love it if you really could buy magical jumping chocolate frogs!

It was a gripping tale and once you start you really can't stop it's almost impossible to think that the other 6 Harry Potter books are even you should definitely read it. If you think it's not living up to your expectations try the other Harry Potter books they just get unbelievably good the higher up you go in the series. I totally recommend it.

The end was surprising although I would recommend watching the movie after reading the book. The reason I rated the book 5\5 is because it had a perfect beginning, beautiful middle and an amazing end. I just can't put the book down I was reading 24\7.

Intriguing

This book was amazing. It was so long but intriging I read it with my mum, dad and brother. I couldn`t put it down. J.K has such a skill with her writing. I spent a long time reading other books that I had no clue who J.K was. then I heard my friends talking about her at school and if my parents had them. so I looked into them and ......

WOW!!!!!!!

This book was exciting because there were some really good parts where I couldn't put the book down. The book is really long too and I like that because I don't like putting a book down when I have finished it.

A great mysterious book

An exciting and mysterious adventure

This book was an exciting and mysterious adventure with magical characters and animals.
My favourite bit was when all the letters from Hogwarts flew into the house and Uncle Vernon was desperate to stop them getting in. I also loved reading about Quidditch.
My favourite character was Hermionne Granger because she is a kind and clever but unfortunately during the book she gets teased and is called a mud blood because her mum and dad are muggles (not wizards!)

This book made me feel Excited, Curious, Scared
