Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone ~ Sets of 6, 15 & 30
It's time to take the magical journey of a lifetime... Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive.
Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!
