Leaky was on hand at yesterday’s cover-to-cover celebration of the 10-year-anniversary of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone; in addition to the many great photos sent to us by readers, we have now added a bunch of our own starting on this page in the gallery. Also, enjoy the following video of the event, edited by Leaky helper Sam (which will soon also be available in our video galleries).
That looked like fun but how can you have Harry Potter himself in New York City and not get him to drop by for a reading. Even if they did his reading in private so he could come and go really quick before people relized he was there would have been better than not al all. Did they even try to get Dan there at all? I think Scholastic missed the bus on that one.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I was there and I now have proof of me reading. Nobody shot video of me reading. Thanks Leaky, I now have video of me reading at the Harry Potter event.
I’d really like to have one of those pins, but there aren’t any on eBay right now. Maybe I’ll check back later, because those look really nice. I wish I could have gone to New York, but sadly I live across the country.
I was there!!!!!!!!!!!! I got that pin and a free copy of the book. I was really cool. By the way, I think that they are inviting everyone back to Scholastic headquarters for CoS reading, and I don’t know where you can get that pin. Try Ebay
Also, if you want to see pictures of the event go to flickr.com. There was a really cute baby with Harry Potter style glasses on behind me. He was adorable!
It was a different world. The wheels of the car skimmed the sea of fluffy cloud, the sky a bright, endless blue under the blinding white sun.[br]"All we've got to worry about now are airplanes," said Ron.[br]They looked at each other and started to laugh;
