Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

A special new edition in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the publication of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer s Stone with a stunning new cover illustration by Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick. The Dursleys were so mean and hideous that summer that all Harry Potter wanted was to get back to the Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. But just as he s packing his bags Harry receives a warning from a strange impish creature named Dobby who says that if Harry Potter returns to Hogwarts disaster will strike. And strike it does. For in Harry s second year at Hogwarts fresh torments and horrors arise including an outrageously stuck-up new professor Gilderoy Lockhart a spirit named Moaning Myrtle who haunts the girls bathroom and the unwanted attentions of Ron Weasley s younger sister Ginny. But each of these seem minor annoyances when the real trouble begins and someone - or something - starts turning Hogwarts students to stone. Could it be Draco Malfoy a more poisonous rival than ever? Could it possibly be Hagrid whose mysterious past is finally told? Or could it be the one everyone at Hogwarts most suspects.. Harry Potter himself This gorgeous new edition in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the publication of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer s Stone features a newly designed cover illustrated by Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick as well as the beloved original interior decorations by Mary GrandPr.
