LONDON (Reuters) - Children around the world are to join an audience with JK Rowling this month and ask the author everything they long to know about Harry Potter.
To mark the release of the most eagerly awaited children's book of the year, Rowling is taking to the stage of London's Royal Albert Hall on June 26 to read from ''Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'' and answer questions from fans.
Following global webcasts of Madonna and Paul McCartney concerts, Microsoft's internet arm MSN is arranging a live Internet feed of the event at www.msn.co.uk/harrypotter from 11 a.m. EDT on the day.
The webcast has the potential to reach readers in 34 countries and children from around the globe have been invited to pose questions to Rowling on the show.
