I quite agree. Everything's always in New York or Chicago or somewhere else that I can't get to. (grumps)

That's cool, but wow, that is a lot of signatures. I think the owls are a neat addition to their premiere party as well.

I wish I could be there to have it signed. It would be a nice touch and make the book that much more valuable. I would have to buy two so I could read one.

All of these HP fan things are always in the big cities that are far away! But if I could go it would be a wonderful experience to meet Ms. GrandPre.

That's actually something I could go to! I can just imagine what the crowds would be like, though. But, it would be very cool to have.

Emma's true fan and lover says:
Wow , thats's wicked. I , like all other HP fans love her drawings and art work. Having a book signed would be really great plus they have gifts and what is it, a special prize as well, Yeah, but it's in New York City, there should be something like that in Canada as well, after all, we love HP just as much.

YEAH! I wonder if it is too late to get tickets to NY. That sounds like so much fun and the prizes included sound great especially the five posters signed by her, and, the Prisoner of Azkaban signed by her and JK.
