Book Synopsis: Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone

The following book synopsis is as appears on the back cover of the Scholastic edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

Harry Potter had never been the star of a Quidditch team, scoring points while riding a broom far above the ground. He knows no spells, has never helped to hatch a dragon, and has never worn a cloak of invisibility.

All he knows is a miserable life with the Dursleys, his horrible aunt and uncle, and their abominable son, Dudley ? a great big swollen bully. Harry?s room is a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs, and he hasn?t had a birthday party in eleven years.

But all of that is about to change when a mysterious letter arrives by owl messenger: a letter to an incredible place that Harry ? and anyone who reads about him ? will find unforgettable. For it?s there that he finds not only friends, aerial sports, and magic in everything from classes to meals, but a great destiny that?s been waiting for him?if Harry can survive the encounter.
