Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (J. K. Rowling)
Prissy and I took turns reading the 1st Harry Potter book to our son, Sam. We had both read it previously on our own. He loved the book. I was worried that some scenes might scare him, but he seemed to be OK with it. I won't say much about the book since everyone already knows about it. Creative, fun fantasy for kids. Rowling's writing is good, but not great. However, the world of Hogwarts is a fantastic creation. The mystery is suspenseful. Rating: A.
