15635






We bought these Harry Potter books when
my daughter was a to small to read and she
is 11 now. They have been in a box and
have never been read.

could not find an edition # anywhere and
since we bought these books so long ago I
am assuming it is the 1st edition but it does
not say that and there is not a price on it.  It
is all black and white with only the sleeve in
color.  If anyone knows otherwise that this is
not the 1st edition please post it because I
don't know otherwise. For all I know this
could be a collectors item or just a book.  

The second picture to the right  shows a
TINY dot that may count as a flaw.
The next picture shows a crease on the
sleeve because it was already folded when
we got it and has been in the box the whole
time.  I have unfolded it.  

The copyright page also says by

Synopsis
Eleven-year-old Harry Potter was a baby when his parents died, and since that time he has been living with his horrible
Uncle Vernon, dislikable Aunt Petunia, and truly disgusting cousin Dudley. Miserable and lonely, Harry is shocked when
he receives a letter inviting him to attend the Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. At this special school, which
is kept a secret from all those not involved in the worlds of magic, Harry begins to learn the truth about the death of his
parents and discovers his own unbelievably amazing family history. This book is the first entry in the phenomenally
popular Harry Potter series of books. Enjoyed by both children and adults, these books literally changed the face of
children's publishing when, as a result of their stunning popularity, the New York Times began compiling and publishing
a list of best-selling children's books--for the first time in that newspaper's history.
Rescued from the outrageous neglect of his aunt and uncle, a young boy with a great destiny proves his worth while
attending Hogwarts School for Witchraft and Wizardry.

Publisher's Note
What did Harry Potter know about magic? He was stuck with the decidedly un-magical Dursleys, who hated him. He slept
in a closet and ate their leftovers. But an owl messenger changes all that, with an invitation to attend the Hogwarts
School for Wizards and Witches, where it turns out Harry is already famous.. . . Full color.


Industry reviews
"Readers may think at first that they have stumbled into a new Roald Dahl book....This amusing adventure will have
fantasy lovers waiting impatiently for the promised sequel."
Book - Kathleen Odean

"On the whole, 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone' is as funny, moving and impressive as the story behind it. J.K.
Rowling, a teacher by training, was a 30-year-old single mother living on welfare in a cold one-bedroom flat in Edinburgh
when she began writing it in longhand during her baby daughter's nap times. But like Harry Potter, she had wizardry
inside, and has soared beyond her modest Muggle surroundings to achieve something quite special."
New York Times - Michael Winerip (02/14/1999)

"This hugely enjoyable fantasy is filled with imaginative details, from oddly flavored jelly beans to dragons' eggs hatched
on the hearth. It's slanted toward action-oriented readers, who will find that Briticisms meld with all the other wonders of
magic school."
