THOUGHTS ON "HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER'S STONE-.
"Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,"" by J. Rowling is the first book of the series of Harry Potter books. Harry Potter is an eleven-year-old boy forced to live with his horrible aunt and uncle. Then he his sent off to a school that teaches witchcraft and wizardry. This book is very popular with children, and they have been waiting for it to play in the movie theater, and now it is finally playing. I have heard some good rumors and some bad rumors about the Harry Potter books. One author says that the Harry Potter books are a fine addition to English children's fantasy literature. 3 November 2001 http://danny reviews.com/h/Harry_Potter.html. Another author feels like it is enough to make you choke on your fava beans (Stuttaford 59). .
I could not understand why quite so much fuss has been made about the Potter books.
The first author that I found seemed pleased with the Harry Potter books. He describes the book in very good detail. Harry Potter has to live with his aunt and uncle, but Harry is rather out of place there, but things improve greatly for him when he goes to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. J.K. Rowling adds some delightful novelties of her own, such as Quidditch, a seven-a-side ball game played on broomsticks, with three different kinds of balls. This is all pulled together by some excellent story telling. He cannot understand why everyone is making a big fuss out of the books. He says that part of the attraction of the book comes from the familiar but at the same time exotic setting of an English public school, complete with houses and schoolboy adventures (in which Harry and his friends Ron and Hermione struggle to save the world and win the house cup.) To highlight the limitations of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,"" it is instructive to compare it with another children's fantasy novel in which a neophyte wizard attends a school for wizards- Ursula Le Guin's, "A Wizard of Earthsea.
