| | |  Scholastic announce DH plans: "There will soon be 7"
Scholastic have today announced multiple marketing plans for the build up toward the July 21st release of Deathly Hallows. The countdown, under the tagline of "There will soon be 7", begins on April 17th.
In keeping with the magical number, Scholastic will be asking fans "the 7 biggest questions relating to J.K. Rowling’s last Harry Potter book". Fans will be able to vote for their favourite answer and discuss their ideas on message boards.
Most notably a Knight Bus tour is scheduled to start on June 2nd. This tour will make stops at 40 libraries in 10 metropolitan areas, starting off in New York City. At every location fans will be able to board the Knight Bus and detail their theories and thoughts on video in regards to the last book. A selection of these clips will later be uploaded to the Scholastic website. The Knight Bus will also be able to be tracked online from June 1st with a tour tracker which will include videos and blogs.
Further details about the campaign can be found here.
Additionally, Amazon have revealed more information about the Deluxe edition of Deathly Hallows: Quote:
- exclusive insert featuring near-scale reproductions of Mary GrandPré's interior art
- never-before-seen full-color frontispiece art on special paper
- custom-designed slipcase, foil-stamped with a full-cloth case book that has been blind-stamped on front and back cover with foil stamping on the spine
- full-color endpapers featuring the jacket art from the trade edition and a wraparound jacket featuring art created especially for this edition by Mary GrandPré

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

The Deluxe edition DH sounds so gorgeous. Im definately going to be buying both because i heard they dont print that many copies
