A young boy living with his aunt and uncle discovers that he is actually a wizard. He is first introduced to the wizarding world by the caretaker at Hogwarts, Hagrid. On the train to Hogwarts he meets Ron Weasley who becomes his best friend. He also meets a young witch Hermione Granger who will also become a friend. At Hogwarts he is sorted into the Gryffindor House and begins taking classes. Things go well in the beginning as he learns to fly and cast spells. But, as the year passes Harry realizes that Hogwarts is harboring a secret. He also comes to find out that his parents were murdered by the evil Lord Voldemort and that Voldemort's unsucessful attempt to kill baby Harry caused his downfall. Now, 11 years later, Harry learns that Voldemort may return to take his revenge against Harry. Harry, supported by friends Ron and Hermione, uncovers the mystery of the Sorcerer's Stone and the person who is trying to steal it.
