Blog Post #3- Semester 2

This week I revisited my past and started to read Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. This book is the first book in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a mix of fantasy and adventure. Even though this book was made back in the late 1990's, I believe that it is one of the best books in the series, if not the best.




This is a picture of the cover of the book. This cover shows when Harry is on the quidditch field and he catches the golden snitch which guarantees automatic victory. Also, there is an unicorn running in the background. which plays a huge role in the book, more than the quidditch match (I can't tell you or else I will spoil the book for you).

This book features a very dynamic character in the form of Harry Potter. He was a child who survived the wrath of the dark lord. Harry Potter started off as a scrawny kid who hated living with his aunt and uncle. He then went to Hogwarts, a wizarding school and became very popular and brave. He was the main player on the quidditch team and he took on the dark lord's servant to stop him from getting the Philosopher's stone. Harry changes a lot throughout the first book of the series.

The best qualities of Harry is that he's very brave and curious which leads him to do many brave feats which help the school fend off some of the most dangerous wizards. The worst qualities of Harry is that he isn't the brightest wizard though he is very powerful and also, he is very quick in his job. He tries to get the job finished early which ends up coming back to haunt him.
