The philosopher's stone is a real legend. Supposedly there really was an alchemist named Nicholas Flemel.
They dumbed it down for us yankees. Figures.
The books have no real differences except for a few spelling, grammar, and slang changes. Besides that the story is still all the same.
You can check on the hp-lexicon, it has some of the changes in the books posted there. _________________

The movie is SS (because the movie is financed by an American Corperation) the original book was PS.
SS is better for the movie, for the books PS is better. _________________ The boy who lived marries the wrong girl.

Philosophers Stone is what JKR called it.
And I didnt even know what it meant, but I read it and found out. It explains it. _________________ Forecast for tomorrow; a few sprinkles of genius with a chance of doom!

Philosophers Stone is better, not that Ive ever read Sorcerers Stone but I think I would get annoyed with the slight changes because its not what Im used to _________________
