My book had a different cover, they come in like 4 different covers but... this book was one of my favorites as young teen. A great tale with adventure, cool characters and mystery. A movie came out after this and it was pretty good too, a big hit in the 80's. You will enjoy this book, I read it twice.

Harry Potter Paperback Box Set (Books 1-7)

Harry Potter is a great fiction books series for all ages. I read them all before the movies came out and I liked the movies very much, but there is nothing like reading the actual book and creating this vision in your mind. If my mind could have created the movie, I think it would have been better then the movie that came out. Although the movie was pretty accurate. lol
