Publisher Description
Turning the envelope over, his hand trembling, Harry saw a purple wax seal bearing a coat of arms; a lion, an eagle, a badger and a snake surrounding a large letter 'H'.
Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!
Having become classics of our time, the Harry Potter stories never fail to bring comfort and escapism. With their message of hope, belonging and the enduring power of truth and love, the story of the Boy Who Lived continues to delight generations of new listeners.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
If you’re like us, you’ve read J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter books so many times you can recite entire scenes verbatim. Luckily, there’s no need for that—British actor Jim Dale has done it for you. With his knack for dramatic storytelling, Dale was born to retell the first book of the wildly successful series. He gives distinct voices to Rowling’s colourful range of characters—mousey Neville Longbottom, ginormous Hagrid, a squawkily adolescent Ron Weasley—and makes this audiobook is a genuinely wonderful listen.
Customer Reviews
Sorcerer? Prefer philosopher
I wanted to buy this but I would prefer to buy the original version. Not the American one.
Harry Potter
I honestly just love to read this book it’s so relaxing but very serious.
Loves these books, Narrator is awful
It HP, it’s one of the most iconic books of our time. It has sparked a new generation of readers. Why why why did they get this Narrator. The entire LOTR series and hobbit have dropped on her with Andy Serkis. Harry Potter gets a man who cannot prounounce common HP jargon. His voices minus Vernon Dursley’s all sound the same. There is Stephen Fry’s version who did an amazing job, heck a YouTube streamer (bibliobibulo) had amazing versions up until they were taken down. Please replace this man, he does not do this series any justice.
