What is your favorite scene from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer (Philosopher)'s Stone?

I'm re-reading this, and I just finished my favorite part - the Christmas scene and Harry's first encounter with the Mirror of Erised (and seeing his parents for the first time). ♥

What's your favorite part from this book? :)

Update:

@Seaweed - yes you're right. But I'm American, and it was marketed the entire time (still is) as Sorcerer's Stone. ^^

    On the boats on the way to the Hogwarts Castle...that's where all the magic begins..

    The troll in the dungeon. The way they fight it, the way Hermione takes the blame.

    Dumbledore's dry wit. When he tells Harry what happened in the dungeon is a secret so the whole school knows.

    (Also from the Half Blood Prince he tells Harry that he (Harry)is unfailingly kind; a trait people never fail to undervalue).

    Now that I think about it there are a lot of favourite scenes- Neville in Herbology, Neville standing upto them, Quidditch, Harry in zoo, Hagrid meeting Harry in the cabin......so many

    I love at the end when harry is in the Hospital Wing and Hagrid comes to see him and Harry shouts VOLDEMORT really loud to stop Hagrid crying.

    Wouldn't this question be 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher (Sorcerer )'s Stone' as Philosopher's is the books real name. It's just in the US they changed it but everywhere else, and JK Rowling herself, made it Philosopher's Stone

    I have to agree with you. The Mirror Of Erised scene is my fav too <3 It had deep themes and inspiring quotes that will help shape your understanding of the story.

    The Quidditch Match in which Quirrel is trying to jinx Harry off his broom but Snape is doing the counter jinx.

    "I'm not going home, not really" that's my favourite! Saying goodbye to Hagrid and boarding the train, one year over, but the magic just beginning!
