| Harry Potter and the Philosopher's/Sorcerer's
Stone, the first in the Harry Potter series, was first published
in 1997. It has seventeen chapters. The book jacket has the
following story line: Harry Potter has never played a
sport while flying on a broomstick. He's never worn a cloak
of invisibility, befriended a giant, or helped hatch a dragon.
All Harry knows is a miserable life with the Dursleys, his
horrible aunt and uncle, and their abominable son, Dudley.
Harry's room is a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs, and
he hasn't had a birthday party in eleven years. But all that
is about to change when a mysterious letter arrives by owl
messenger: a letter with an invitation to a wonderful place
he never dreamed existed. There he finds not only friends,
aerial sports, and magic around every corner, but a great
destiny that's been waiting for him . . .if Harry can survive
the encounter.
