Pros: Delightfully engrossing story that came to life. The book got children reading.
Cons: None for me
The Bottom Line: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone was a wonderful first book in a series by J.K. Rowling. It is considered a children's book, but adults can enjoy it too.

Pros: Rowlings use of names, imagination, fun, and well-established themes of friendship
Cons: I tried to jump off my roof riding a broom. THAT stings.
The Bottom Line: Sets the storyline for the Harry Potter series of novels...a slower start than the other books, but still a well-written, enjoyable read.
