Harry Potter and the Philosopher´s stone was one of the first novels I read. The plot is so perfect that it gets also a little bit older readers hooked up. The book is touching, exciting, fun and for me it brings a lot of memories from my childhood.
Harry Potter and the Philosopher´s stone is the first novel in the Harry Potter series. The book serie includes in all seven books. Books are written by the British author J.K.Rowling. The idea of Harry Potter was born, when she once travelled by train. First Rowling wrotes the story about Harry for fun, but little by little the book was finished. Twelve publishers rejected the book before Bloomsbury Publishing interested in it. In the end the book was published. Today the Harry Potter – serie is one of the best-selling book series in history and it have been translated into over 70 languages.
One Harry Potter – book tells always about one year in Harry´s life. Harry is the main character of the book. His parents have magical powers and so he has too. He just don´t know it before he turns to eleven and gets a letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy. In school he meets Ron and Hermione, his two best friends and experiences many incredible adwentures with them. Harry and his friends and classmates are learning elements of magic. Hogwarts School is huge and full of exciting things. Secrets are fulfilling the whole place. Harry, Ron and Hermione get into their life´s biggest adventure when they try to clear those up. In the end Harry meets the most dangerous dark wizard, called lord Voldemort, who killed his parent´s, when he was only a one-year old baby. Harry fights against Voldemort and delays his returning to the power. This is the main story of the book, but it includes several other plots and characters too.
Many of you have certainly read this book as a child. I sincerely recommened you to do it again. The reading experience is really very different. You can find a whole new story and the plot is opening to you in a brand new way.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher´s stone
Titanic
Titanic is directed by James Cameron and on it´s soundtrack is one of the most famous songs of all time; Celine Dion´s ”My heart will go on”. In leading roles of the film are Kate Winslet and Leonardo di Caprio. They are both very fascinating and skilful actors, who don´t leave no one cold. I think that the main reason which makes the film so touching is simply the actors. They play their roles so perfect. Titanic´s characters are fictionally but the film is based on true events. Titanic has broken many records. It has won eleven Oscars for example. It was also the first film which box-office was more than billion dollars.
Now I will tell you briefly the plot of the film. 17-year-old Rose steps into the ship with her mother Ruth and her future fiancé Cal. Mother convinces Rose how important the marriage with Cal is, but Rose doesn´t love him and she even considers suicide by jumping from the stern. Third-class passenger Jack stops her and this time tragedy is avoided. Rose demands that they have to ask Jack to dine with them at the following evening. That´s the least they can do. After that Jack and Rose are meeting secretly and step by step they are falling in love. Eventually Jack even draws a picture from Rose in which she wears only a precious diamond necklace, Cal´s gift to her. Cal and mother Ruth are furious about that. Chaos begins when the ship hits the iceberg. People are screaming and the lifeboats are filling. Rose refuses to get to the lifeboat with her mother. Instead she jumps back to the sinking ship, because she wants to be with Jack, no matter what! The fight for staying alive begins. The ship sinks, people are floating in the frozen and dark sea, among others, also Jack and Rose. Hundred´s of people are dying, also Jack. Rose survives barely, but she can´t never forget Jack. Rose get´s her freedom and she never meets Cal again. She lives her life carrying these memories in her heart.
Titanic is the best film, I have ever seen!
