How would it make you feel if you lived under the stairs and
had no friends? How would you feel if your parents died and
you were sent to live with your aunt and uncle who lie to you
about your parents past? Finally, how would you feel if a man
you had never seen before show up on your birthday and told
you every secret that your aunt and uncle have been keeping
from you? Lava Lamps. This is the enchanting story of a
boy who lost his parents due to an evil wizard and is sent to
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to become a great
wizard and uncover his past. Harry Potter and the Sorcerers
Stone is an excellent book and a great read for everyone, even
if you hate to read. J.K. Rowlings ability to keep the reader
interested and guessing is amazing. She has the ability to
tell great stories that will interest all age Lava levels. I
have not come across one person who has read this book and not
fallen in love with it. It is a fast read and the pages will
seem to fly by. If you read one Lava Lamp in your lifetime
make it Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone.
I do not really get involved
with books too much because of the fact that I have a short
attention span and that I tend to find most of books boring
except for this one. Harry Potter was brought to life by J.K
Rowling. I would highly recommend this book not only for my
peers but for all ages because of the way the author gets you
interested in the book and keeps you involved with having to
draw a vivid image in your head. She does this in many ways
throughout the book.
One of the ways she helps you draw a vivid picture is by
describing to you the settings and the exact details of what
the scenario is. Harry Potter and his friends were at the big
Halloween dinner at the school hall when they were informed
that there was a troll that had gotten into the school.
Everyone was told to go their rooms except for Harry and his
friend Ron who had to look for Hermoine who had gone to the
ladies room. As they came in Hermoine was yelling at the top
of her lungs trying to get away from the troll. So, Harry and
Ron both distracted the troll so Hermoine could run out. Harry
jumped on the troll and try to hit it with his wand. The troll
was described as very large, green, disgustingly smelly feet
and a nose so big that you could see into from a mile away.
Harry finally stuck his wand up the trolls nose and had passed
out on the floor. The description of this scene was written so
well.
This example is one of literally close to one hundred events
in this book. J.K. Rowling is a great writer to me, and now am
a fan of reading. |
