5.0 out of 5 stars Good translation, and on time delivery, July 25, 2008

I bought urdu version of Harry Potter from Amazon's 3rd party seller BellWetherBook.net. Book came in good condition, and on time -- they charged bit more then Amazon.

Now about the book itself. Translation on this book is based on a Harry Potter's Orginal Book -- the UK Version. I haved read both English version (UK & US). UK is the orginal version of Harry Potter -- difference are minor. For example; in the orginal version Potter's uncle was planing to go to Spain for vaction, in US they changed it to New York. There are few other things -- but the story is almost the same.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, by JK Rowling, is a delightfully warming, mystical, and times frightening tale of a young boy who suddenly finds out there is much more to him than he ever dreamed!

Harry has spent ten years of his life in the grudging care of his Aunt and Uncle, living a miserable life. Then on his 11th birthday everything changes, when an enormous man, named Hagrid, turns up to inform him that he is a Wizard, and further more he has been accepted to learn magic at the school of Hogwarts.

Once Harry leaves his Aunt and Uncle, the world that he is introduced to by Hagrid is the stuff of magic and dreams. An enchanted ceiling, staircases that change about on you, portraits that move and talk to you, a talking hat, a teacher who turns herself into a cat, and a three headed dog are just a few of the things that await Harry during his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
