The book that conquered the world, the standard of literature for readers of all ages, synonymous with success. The book that made JK Rowling the most widely read writer of our time. A book that has become a cult favorite for several generations. "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" - the story begins.

The text of the book has been slightly edited: the most controversial places have been smoothed out, rudeness has been softened. Some names and titles are given in the usual spelling: Dudley - Dudley, Dumbledore - Dumbledore, Hagrid - Hagrid, Zloteus Snape - Severus Snape, Vranzor - Ravenclaw, Hogwarts - Hogwarts, Sorting Hat - Sorting Hat. Madame Moonshine is now Madame Future (relatively new, but in my opinion, the perfect option from Luthien). There are also several less noticeable changes. At the same time, most of the names and concepts remained from Maria Spivak’s translation, even such ambiguous ones as “moogle” or “quiddish”. There is only one reason: the personal preferences of the editor. Sincerely, giftman.
