Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone is the first book in a series of seven. Harry went to live with his aunt and uncle after his parents supposidly died in a car crash. Harry had a cousin that was around his age and his aunt and uncle favored him compared to Harry. Harry never got birthday or Christmas presents and the only clothes he had to wear were his cousins old ones. One day when Harry was getting the mail a letter had come from him. It was odd because he never had any friends or anything who could send him letters. Harry's uncle got the letter from him before he could open it. Both his aunt and uncle looked very worried about him getting the letter.

Soon, they were recieving several letters a day. When his uncle nailed up the mail slot, they began coming through windows and down the chiminey. After a few days of this, his uncle seemed to have had a enough and thought that by leaving town for a few days whoever was sending them would not be able to find them. Eventually, the ended up in a little shack out on an island off the coast. It's then that Hagrid, a gigantic man, appears to tell Harry what he is and what really happened to his parents.
