Harry Potter. Book 1: Philosopher's Stone (Illustrated Edition)

Про книгу

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! These new editions of the classic and internationally bestselling, multi-award-winning series feature instantly pick-up-able new jackets by Jonny Duddle, with huge child appeal, to bring Harry Potter to the next generation of readers. It's time to PASS THE MAGIC ON "I've yet to meet a ten-year-old who hasn't been entranced by its witty, complex plot and the character of the eponymous Harry." Independent "Spellbinding, enchanting, bewitching stuff." Mirror "Teachers say a chapter can silence the most rowdy of classes." Guardian "One of the greatest literary adventures of modern times." Sunday Telegraph "The Harry Potter stories will join that small group of children's books which are read and reread into adulthood." TLS
