Review by Maylie N.
Who would like this book? Children 8 and up will love this book, which is filled with mysteries, plot twists, and magic. Anyone ready for an adventure (who probably enjoyed the first book) will snatch this book right up and never put it down.
The goods on this book: Harry is estatic that the time to go back to Hogwarts is closing in. Just when he is most ready to leave the Dursleys, his rude adoptive parents and cousin that treat him poorly, a strange elf appears and demands Harry to stay away from Hogwarts, because bad things were going to happen. Harry ignores the warning, and returns to a Hogwarts in chaos. A mysterious entity is whispering to Harry through the walls, but no-one else can hear it. An unknown figure is turning Hogwarts students to stone, and questions upon questions pile up at every corner. Prepare to be zooming across the pages along with Harry, who will encounter a new professor, a crush, a diary, a language called Parseltongue, a broken arm, and old enemies.
The details: 341 pages; 1999 Review by Maylie N.
