The novel that opened the Harry Potter series appears here as a large-format illustrated hardcover, with Jim Kay's colour art set against J.K. Rowling's original text.
Harry's move from an ordinary and unhappy childhood into a world of wands, letters and a school hidden from everyone else unfolds chapter by chapter, unabridged. Kay's paintings give shape to the characters, creatures and settings that readers have long pictured for themselves, and the wide pages let scenes run across a full spread. The result works as a first meeting with the series and as a fresh pass for readers who know the story by heart.
Details that matter:
• Unabridged text of the first book in the series
• Illustrations by Jim Kay in colour on almost every spread
• Large hardcover format suited to shared reading with a child
• An entry point for newcomers and a keepsake for existing fans
Recommended for children starting the series, families reading together and fantasy collectors, available from Boipoka.
