J K Rowling launches the second World Book Day Online Festival

Bloomsbury.com - Readers across the world will have the opportunity to chat online with JK Rowling when she launches the second World Book Day Online Festival on Thursday 4th March.

The bestselling author will talk to children about her books, her writing and the kind of books she likes to read. And during the chat, JK Rowling will answer twelve special questions from the winners of the Festival competition open to all UK schools.

Readers will be able to access the World Book Day Online Festival at their local library via the People’s Network, which provides internet access in all UK public libraries. Libraries will also be programming thousands of special activities on the day. The Festival films and transcripts of the web chats will then be archived at World Book Day Festival.com so they can be visited over and over again.
