   In 1997 my mother, an avid reader all of her life, was 83 years old. She had gone blind several years previously but continued to “read” via audio books.

   I had never heard of Harry Potter but saw an elaborate display of the book “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” in our local book store. Since the audio book had so many discs I bought a copy thinking it would entertain my mother for a long time. This first book, and all the following books in the series entertained her for ten years. (Through 2007) She died in 2012 at the age of 98.

   Thank you J.K. Rowling for giving my mother an enchanting way to spend her final years.

     *It’s
     *Philosopher’s
     *Stone
     *it’s
     *Sorcerer’s
     *Stone
     *right

     And it IS Philosopher’s Stone. Sorcerer’s Stone was a one-off version made for the USA, because they felt Americans were too ignorant to read a book with the words “Philosopher” in the title.
