Harry Potter is an ordinary boy who lives in a cupboard under the stairs at his Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon's house, which he thinks is normal for someone like him who's parents have been killed in a 'car crash'. He is bullied by them and his fat, spoilt cousin Dudley, and lives a very unremarkable life with only the odd hiccup (like his hair growing back overnight!) to cause him much to think about. That is until an owl turns up with a letter addressed to Harry and all hell breaks loose! He is literally rescued by a world where nothing is as it seems and magic lessons are the order of the day. Read and find out how Harry discovers his true heritage at Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft, the reason behind his parents mysterious death, who is out to kill him, and how he uncovers the most amazing secret of all time, the fabled Philosopher's Stone! All this and muggles too. Now, what are they?
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was J.K. Rowling's first novel, followed by Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, as well as three books written for charity and inspired by the Harry Potter novels: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through the Ages and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. The Harry Potter novels have now sold over 400 million copies worldwide and been translated into 70 languages. J.K. Rowling has generated huge popular appeal for her books across the generations in an unprecedented fashion: she was the first children's author to be voted the BA Author of the Year, and also to win the British Book Awards Author of the Year. J.K. Rowling lives with her family in Edinburgh.

ハリー・ポッターが大好きです。
ハリー・ポッターシリーズを読むのが好きです。映画を見るよりも、小説を読んで自分の想像力でキャラクターたちの世界を感じる方が楽しいと思います。暇な時間に本を読むことをおすすめします。私は長い電車の旅には、ほとんどいつも持って行きます。

Present for our student who is learning English.
He loves Harry Potter, so he enjoyed it very much. This book is not very difficult to read for the students whose English level is higher than Eiken 3, I think.

ハリポタ全7冊の中で、一番面白い
２５年前に楽しんだ本です。すでに社会人だった私は「子供のころに読めたら、どれだけもっと感動できただろう」と悔しかったです。 小６になった姪が「英語の長文が苦手」と言ったので、「文章をたくさん読んだら解決できるよ」とアドバイス。この本を贈りました。 長いお話ですが、もともと子供向けに書かれたお話ですし、ぐいぐいひきこまれていくので、あっという間に読み終わることでしょう。

英検準1級の単語対策におすすめとあるけれど。。
YOUTUBEで、英検準1級の対策にこちらの本がよくお薦めにあがりますが、、本当でしょうかね？ かちかちの受験英語、高校英語では太刀打ちできない英文だと思いますがね。。語彙も含めて。 映画にもなった作品ですが、JKローリングさんは、幼い頃メアリーポピンズや不思議の国のアリスが愛読書だったのでは？そういった作品を、面白いと思える人にはお薦めです。子供用ですが、日本人にとって、こちらの英語はかなり 難易度高めです。

Excellent book. It enriched my vocabulary very much. It was an interesting story, too. I feel like it is an interesting dictionary with stories that make me feel sad and also some that cannot stop me from a chortle.

This is a really nice edition of the first Harry Potter book. The cover artwork looks beautiful and atmospheric, with vibrant colors and high-quality printing. The book itself is lightweight, the pages feel decent, and the font size is comfortable for longer reading sessions. I especially like that this is the original British version «Philosopher’s Stone» which makes it feel more authentic for collectors and fans of the original text. The inside formatting is clean and well organized, and the paper quality is good for a paperback edition. It’s also a great option for practicing English because the writing style is engaging and easier to follow if you already know the story from the movies.
