[img]http://www.snitchseeker.com/images/news/jkr_80.jpg' align='middle'> Exclusive chance to report from JK book Festival - Summary:
CBBC Newsround are offering the chance for one fan to report from the Edinburgh book festival where JK will be reading from OotP and taking questions from fans. Article: Exclusive chance to report from JK book Festival CBBC Newsround yet again have another Harry Potter themed competiton, this time for one lucky fan to report from the Edinburgh Book Festival in Scotland, on August 15th. You'll be able to hear JK read parts of OotP, have her answer one of your questions and get a book signed!
All you have to do in return is report on the event for Newsround Online.
The rules are as follows: Quote: Remember to try and make your question as original as possible as we going to get loads of entries!
You and your parent/guardian must be free on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 August.
Don't worry about travelling to Edinburgh, we'll sort that out for you.
But Harry up with your entry as this competition closes on Thursday 12 August at midday.
There doesn't seem to be an age limit, although CBBC is aimed at children and so the age line will probably be drawn at 18. They mention nothing concerning nationality so I assume that oversees fans can enter.
Good luck to all who enter!

I guess I just realized how many Harry Potter fans aren't kids! I myself am 12 so I don't think I'll have any trouble entering....it's just the fact of getting my parents to take me to England......not likely! I live in the US and it possitively stinks!  | |

LOL No Emma, I would use the word 'Keen'. Quote: There doesn't seem to be an age limit, although CBBC is aimed at children and so the age line will probably be drawn at 18. Blah...... at nearly 26, I ain't got a hope in Azkaban! *stamps foot and pouts*

I would be so great on a kids channel, I would even ask CBBC to put my name badge as Mad-Eye Kel when doing the report - don't they realise that us adult fans can be more fun than the kids!! uugghh *still pouting* hehe...!
Sounds er ..nice Kel...er a bit scary too but I would without doubt watch your show!
But like Ive said before What the Kel...  | |
