Scholastic has revealed plans for a Harry Potter Reading Club, an online destination designed for readers of J.K. Rowling‘s book series.
The site is home to a discussion guide for each of the seven Harry
Potter novels and includes discussion questions based on the themes and events
in the books. Every month, the publisher will add new discussion themes.
As a special feature for the new site, Rowling will
be participating in a live webcast in which the author will virtually visit classrooms and answer questions
from students. Rowling will stationed at her hometown in Edinburgh, Scotland,
answering questions from kids across the United States. The event will take
place on October 11, 2012 at noon ET. Schools that would like to participate
can sign up at this link.
Early registrants for the reading club will get special bonus features.
The Scholastic press release explains: “The first 10,000 registrants for the
Club will receive a welcome kit including bookmarks, stickers and nametags.
Printable versions of these items will also be available for download from the
website.”
