Harry shook his hand as he turned the envelope over to reveal a purple wax seal with a coat of arms that had a lion, an eagle, a badger, a snake, and other animals surrounding the capital letter ‘H’. When the letters begin to arrive at number four Privet Drive, Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts. His gruesome aunt and uncle quickly seize the documents, which are addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment and have a purple seal. On Harry’s eleventh birthday, Rubeus Hagrid, a huge, beetle-eyed giant, barges in with some startling news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. A fantastic journey is about to start in this Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone edition.
The Harry Potter books, which have since become modern classics, never fail to provide solace and escapism. The Boy Who Lived tale never ceases to enchant new listeners with its message of hope, belonging, and the eternal power of truth and love.
