| | |  J.K. Rowling to read at the Queen's 80th birthday party
The Sunday Times is reporting that J.K. Rowling will be reading at the Queen’s 80th birthday party this June. The Times states that the author will be reading from 'the next Harry Potter book', which may in fact refer to book six, 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'. The event will be telivised on Saturday, June 25. Quote: |
A tree-lined area will be converted into Winnie the Pooh’s Hundred Acre Wood; Peter Pan will duel with Captain Hook aboard a pirate ship on a lake; and J K Rowling will read from her next Harry Potter book. | Quote: |
Most of the royal family, including Princes William and Harry, are expected to attend.
| Quote: |
The BBC is to broadcast a 90-minute show costing £1.5m from the party immediately after a World Cup quarter-final that could pitch England against Germany. The corporation is hoping for a “captive” audience of 20m for the event.
| Quote: |
Rowling, who will be joined by Daniel Radcliffe, her boy wizard on screen, said: “I can think of no better way to mark the Queen’s 80th birthday.”

I wish the trio was going. Even though the books are about Harry, the trio is just as important. lol But it's cool. I can't wait to hear an excerpt from book 7.  | |

Yay!! I live in England and ive signed up for an invitation to the queens party - i can't wait to see if ive got an invitation!!! remember jk has never done a reading from a yet to be released book before, they might just mean book 6, and there is no confirmation that dan will actually attend the party, so im gonna take the article with a pinch of salt. | |

^Yeah, I was just reading on TLC that it won't be book 7, that they had a massive typo. That it'll actually be *a* HP book, but she doesn't know which one. Bummer. | |

Gosh, wonder how much I would pay to get JK to read in my back garden

Yeah, The Queen is supposed to have a really "kid them" party or something like that, cool to get the best writer in britain, and one of the most famous actors! | |
