In the UK, the first is called "Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone." US editors thought that young readers here wouldn't understand that. Other British usages have been changed to that young people in the US can understand. Some original usages have been left the same.
For example, when Harry and his friends again meet the former Prof. Gilderoy Lockhart in St. Mungo's hospital, he tells them that he's just learned "joined together writing." (His memory was erased by a curse that he directed at them in "Chamber of Secrets.") US students know this as cursive writing.
