Is there anybody left in the Muggle world who hasn't heard of Harry Potter, or read his extraordinary and exciting adventures? In this first book in the series, which catapulted J.K. Rowling to the very heights of literary fame, Harry discovers that he is no ordinary boy but a wizard of great renown and that he is expected at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Moreover, at Hogwarts he encounters "He Who Must Not Be Named", a master of magic whose ambition is more dark and terrifying than Harry can possibly imagine. --back cover

I recall around the year 2000 is when I first started hearing the hype about this boy who is a wizard book and not thinking to much of it. That was until one day my mother brought the book home and said she was (not in character for her) to read me a little bit each night. This lasted maybe 2 chapter before you gave up and read the rest of the book on her own. So I was quite exited when a year later my 4th grade teacher started reading the book to the class aloud in our down time over the course of a month or so.

Was great to finally get to understand what all this hubbub was about. Well to this day I am still kind of wondering how this book on its own launched such a media power house. Like do not get me wrong …
