For most children, summer vacation is something to look forward to. But not for our 13-year-old hero, who's forced to spend his summers with an aunt, uncle, and cousin who detest him. The third book in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series catapults into action when the young wizard "accidentally" causes the Dursleys' dreadful visitor Aunt Marge to inflate like a monstrous balloon and drift up to the ceiling. Fearing punishment from Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon (and from officials at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who strictly forbid students to cast spells in the nonmagic world of Muggles), Harry lunges out into the darkness with his heavy trunk and his owl Hedwig.
As it turns out, Harry isn't punished at all for his errant wizardry. Instead he is mysteriously rescued from his Muggle neighborhood and whisked off in a triple-decker, violently purple bus to spend the remaining weeks of summer in a friendly inn called the Leaky Cauldron. What Harry has to face as he begins his third year at Hogwarts explains why the officials let him off easily. It seems that Sirius Black--an escaped convict from the prison of Azkaban--is on the loose. Not only that, but he's after Harry Potter. But why? And why do the Dementors, the guards hired to protect him, chill Harry's very heart when others are unaffected? Once again, Rowling has created a mystery that will have children and adults cheering, not to mention standing in line for her next book. Fortunately, there are four more in the works.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone Cassette Travel Bag is a complete and unabridged reading by Stephen Fry on six cassettes, contained in a travel box. A CD travel bag is also available.
Just when it seems that there cannot possibly be another twist to the Harry Potter tale, Stephen Fry dons his haughtiest and naughtiest tones to bring Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone to vibrant life on audio. Harry Potter has spent the first 10 years of his life at the mercy of the dreadful Dursleys--the aunt, uncle and fat, spoilt brat of a cousin who reluctantly gave him a home after the death of his mother and father. But on his 11th birthday Harry discovers that he is no ordinary boy, and despite the best efforts of his hideous relatives he escapes to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to begin his new life as a trainee wizard. And the rest, as they say, is history...
As Harry battles against the evils thrown in his path, Stephen Fry injects the proceedings with a wry, dry and extremely contagious humour that perfectly suits the tale, wringing out the best in Harry and his cohorts as they get to grips with their new lives at the sharp end of Hogwarts. Fry's innate upper-class drone is perfectly suited to the telling of this most magical tale, cracking into the high-pitched squawking of Hermione the swat, or the gentle tones of the firm but fair Dumbledore, or the evil sniping of slimey Snape at precisely the right moments.
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is a fine story and much has been written about its success, but until you have heard Fry's cracking reading of this most magical of stories then you simply haven't lived. As with any audio book, this one is perfect for car journeys and an ideal way of introducing reluctant readers to the magic that is Harry Potter. (Ages 9 and over) --Susan Harrison

Hoot, Carl Hiaasen's debut novel for younger readers is a very special treat indeed. The writing is exceptionally good, and the characters extremely quirky and well realised. It's incredibly readable despite a story premise that is not sparklingly original. But no matter, there's an engaging "feel-good" vibe running through the whole book.
The setting, as with Hiaasen's crime thrillers for adults such as Basket Case and Sick Puppy, is sunny Florida and the heat, swamps, dust and pancakes all contribute to the authentic atmosphere of the book. His favourite environmental theme is here too, as is the thoroughly watertight plotting. There's an engaging mystery set up on the very first page and it builds nicely with more twists and turns as the story unfolds--all of them reassuringly tied up come the final pages.
Roy Eberhardt's story begins when he is being mashed up against the window of the school bus by bully Dana Matherson. He spots an athletic bare-footed boy running away from the bus and wonders where he is going. Further investigations, after he has unwisely smashed Dana's nose in to get away from him, leads Roy into the middle of a battle between a green-minded local runaway and the proposed opening of a pancake restaurant. The development threatens the habitat of a burrowing-owl colony and it's an issue that several people in the community have differing views upon--not all of them legal.
Roy carries the story very well indeed. He's likable and persistent in the face of unexpected and challenging adventure, despite his modest size. The cause he chooses to support is eminently worthy--he weighs up the strength of his beliefs with the necessity to slightly bend the law. This is a good story with some great writing--a winning combination. (For readers aged 10 and over.) --John McLay [via]

Among the greatest charms of children is their ability to view a simple activity as a magical adventure. Such as a walk in the woods late at night. Jane Yolen captures this wonderment in a book whose charm rises from its simplicity. "It was late one winter night, long past my bedtime, when Pa and I went owling." The two walked through the woods with nothing but hope and each other in a journey that will fascinate many a child. John Schoenherr's illustrations help bring richness to the countryside adventure. The book won the 1988 Caldecott Medal. [via]

Les quatre premiers tomes des aventures du jeune sorcier à lunettes se sont envolés aussi rapidement que le vif d'or dans une partie de quidditch ! Harry Potter et l'Ordre du Phénix ne fera pas exception. La magie en revient encore à la plume vive de Joanne K. Rowling, mais également, cette fois, au tourbillon de difficultés dans lequel est happé Harry adolescent.
Harry vient de passer un autre pénible été chez son oncle et sa tante, sans nouvelles de ses amis ni du monde de la magie. Autrefois admis en héros à l'école des sorciers, il y est accueilli plutôt tièdement en cette cinquième année. C'est que le ministère de la Magie ne veut plus rien entendre des prétendues menaces de mort qui planent sur Harry Potter. Mandée pour effacer le souvenir de Voldemort des couloirs de l'école, une nouvelle enseignante en profite dès lors pour rendre la vie dure à Harry et semer la zizanie parmi les grands et les petits sorciers. Chassé de l'équipe de quidditch et ridiculisé par le ministère de la Magie, Harry doit également combattre les images que parvient à immiscer dans son cerveau Lord Voldemort, bel et bien vivant, et plus menaçant que jamais. Et pour couronner le tout, voilà que Harry se retrouve affligé d'une timidité qui le transforme en poireau devant la belle Cho Chang.
Plaçant son jeune héros dans une position impossible, entre un gouvernement de la magie incompétent et une école impuissante, J. K. Rowling réussit un portrait saisissant de l'adolescence. Harry Potter et l'Ordre du Phénix exprime ainsi cette tragique vérité : chaque être est seul, mais il possède en lui des ressources illimitées... --Julie Sergent [via]

Dass es für ein Buch einen Erstverkaufstag gibt, ist nichts Neues, doch dass sogar eine Erstverkaufsstunde festgelegt wird, das hat es noch nicht gegeben. Als in England der dritte Band der beliebten Harry-Potter-Reihe erschien, wurde, um ein kollektives Schwänzen der Schüler zu vermeiden, bestimmt, dieses Buch nicht vor 16.30 Uhr zu veräußern. Trotzdem war nach wenigen Stunden die erste Auflage restlos ausverkauft.
Joanne Rowling knüpft auch in Deutschland mit ihrem neuen Band an ihren bisherigen Erfolg an. Harry ist mittlerweile im dritten Jahr auf der Zauberschule. Er ist so froh wie nie, als die Schule endlich wieder beginnt, denn wieder musste er seine Ferien bei den schrecklichen Dursleys verbringen. Und dann kommt auch noch die fürchterliche Tante Magda zu Besuch. Einfach grässlich. Aus Versehen lässt er sie mit einem kleinen Schwebezauber an die Decke abheben. Eigentlich bricht er damit eine Regel der Zauberer. Aber Harry droht kein Schulverweis, denn das Zauberministerium schützt ihn, da man vermutet, der gefürchtete Verbrecher Sirius Black -- aus dem gut bewachten Gefängnis Askaban entkommen -- ist hinter Harry her.
Harry rätselt, was Black mit ihm zu schaffen hat. Bei einem nächtlichen Gespräch erfährt er, dass dieser am Tod seiner Eltern beteiligt war.
Joanne Rowling lässt ihre Fantasie Purzelbäume schlagen und als erwachsener Leser kann man sich nur wünschen, immer so jung zu bleiben, dass einem dieses Buch Freude bereitet. --Manuela Haselberger
