| | |  New Dan Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, & Emma Watson READ campaign posters & contest
New preview photos of Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson urging youngsters to read as part of the American Library Association's READ campaign have been released on the ALA's website (where the posters can be purchased). Those new photos can be seen in our galleries.  UPDATE: The ALA have sent over slightly larger images of the trio's READ campaign photos. Those are below.   
Dan's is The Master & Margarita; Rupert, A Clockwork Orange; and Emma is holding Romeo and Juliet. Quote:
In celebration of the Harry Potter phenomenon readers Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson join the READ campaign.
For more than a decade, J.K. Rowling has captivated imaginations and inspired a generation of new readers with the Harry Potter series. Soon after learning at the age of eleven that he is a wizard, Harry Potter attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Here, he meets his best friends, Ron and Hermione, Headmaster Albus Dumbledore, and a cast of eclectic teachers. While Harry, Ron and Hermione navigate the joys and hardships of growing up, their adventures in the wizarding world become darker and more dangerous.
On November 19th, the final installment in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, comes to the screen in the first of two parts. As the three friends race to find the Horcruxes that are the secret to Lord Voldemort’s power and immortality, the Dark Lord’s Death Eaters wreak havoc on the wizarding world. As the war wages, Harry Potter draws closer to the task for which he has been preparing since he became “the boy who lived”: the ultimate battle with Voldemort.
The posters will go on sale starting October 18, 2010. ALA Graphics is hosting a Harry Potter trivia contest on Facebook for the next week, where the prizes will be the trio posters set. For more information, head over to the ALA's Facebook account here, and participate in the competition!  | |

well the site says the other books besides a clockwork orange are romeo and juliet and the master & margarita maybe dan's showing the master & margarita just by the amount of words in the title?? That's what I guess ...

 I wonder if my school library will get these up on the walls soon! We already have a bunch of these posters as it is, with people like Oprah and Johnny Depp.

Good for them, reading is one of my biggest loves in life. Just started reading Deathly Hallows again, must be the 12th or so time. Still love it and all of the others.

I just decided that I will die for that poster of Emma. ROMEO AND JULIET IS THE BESTEST SHAKESPEARE BOOK EVER! And then comes the Tempest.. *trails on* Sorry, I'm a big Shakespeare and Rowling fanatic Emma's hair still looks odd though.. It's.. Short! Hehe
