When mysterious letters start arriving on his doorstep, Harry Potter has never heard of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
They are swiftly confiscated by his aunt and uncle.
Then, on Harry’s eleventh birthday, a strange man bursts in with some important news: Harry Potter is a wizard and has been awarded a place to study at Hogwarts.
And so the first of the Harry Potter adventures is set to begin. ([source][1])

An excellent introduction to a wonderfully developed and rich world.
Le premier tome de la célébrissime saga Harry Potter, qu'on ne présente plus. Un premier volume enfantin, à l'image de l'âge des héros dans ces débuts pleins de naïveté mais qui donnent tout de même envie de lire la suite.
I think that this was my thrid or fourth reading of this book, and I still enjoyed it a lot, and identified with the characters. I still like it best of all the Harry Potter books, in spite of a plot hole that I'm sure many other readers must ha wondered about --in the denouement, when Harry Potter passes all the obstacles, he notices that the key has a broken with, so someone had been there before them. But the potion bottles, including the smallest, which he had to drink, still appeared to be full.
