Since when is Chicago, Cleveland and Los Angeles on the EAST COAST? or maybe I'm dumb and didn't get it.

I've submitted my rant here in a more educated and polite format to Scholastic's feedback on their website. Apparently, they are dedicated to following through with feedback inquiries, so if you are interested in asking for more locations or even another bus entirely to service the children of the US in this ONCE IN HISTORY event, please write them a detailed email through their feedback service.

Great idea, heartnut! I'll go do that right now...

OMG. it's coming to San Francisco and Oakland! I have to go! AHH. i'm so excited. but i'm scared too. i don't know why! Does it really look like the knight bus??!?

Hmmm Not quite East Coast or else I'd be able to go since Florida should be included in East Coast...thats more like cross country since it is literally going through Chicago, St Louis, Phoenix, and LA.... Darn it...they had me excited about it too...

NNNNOOO its in the usa....i live inthe uk...aarrggghhh

UGH! I live in the 'midwest' ugh ugh ugh fine i guess it won't come here!

First time i have EVER been near a HP event. It isnt the closest library, but its in the same county. Plus, by the time it gets to me school will be out!

Florida never gets anything.. Too Bad!! To everyone else who gets to go HAVE FUN!!

Ah! But sailorprincess6. YOU have Jo, and Charing Cross Road and the real Hogwarts Express and Kings Cross, and Edinburg and all the stuff Harry. A 'country wide tour', I would think should include the entire country. At least the lower 48 contiguous states, if not Alaska and Hawaii too. Good luck to all you who do get to see this phenomenon. Have fun and tell the rest of us all about it. (take photos, if you can.) OMT

Since when is San Francisco on the East Coast? I blame global warming.

They're coming to my library! Aaaahhhh! And there's multiple stops in NYC!! The Bronx Library center is sooo cloooseee to me! Yall gon see me on that bus!!

I'm sorry sailorprincess6. I read you remark, and somehow read you're in the UK. To all those suffering in the UK, read the above. Mumble, mumble, gotta learn to read. mumble. OMT

i could go to a few of them =)

To AGUADALUPITA: not all libraries are free...some require a montly/annual fee, others require the consumer to live within a certain district...anyway... I wish this tour thing came somewhere near me...argh, you lucky people, i'm so jealous!

YES!!!! this is HP SUMMER and it's gonna rock! kickin' it off with the mugglenet tour in canton then this one a weekish later in parma!

Yay!! It's coming to a library like 15 minutes away from me!! Also, the Saturday before that, Mugglenet is going to be at a bookstore like 10 minutes away. It's weird, I live near Washington D.C (THE NATIONS'S CAPITAL) and it seems like we still never really get anything.

that is soooo cool! i live in that area so i have to go!

I'm trying to go to as many HP events as possible before the series ends. This is going on the list. I'm not too far from NYC so I'll try that one.

Kind of annoyed they dont include the south east, I mean we are Huge Harry Potter Fans too! bLAH

cool cant wait!!!!!!!!!!

YES THANK YOU SAN DIEGO!!!!!!! I'm GOING I JUST NEED A RIDe

Aww... Nothing EVER comes to Canada. I feel so exiled, lmao. SO NOT FAIR. EVERYONE IS BIASED TO THE US! (No offense to those in the United States... I just mean that everything good happens there :D)

uhg this is so not fair!!! they said the trip was for the EAST coast and they added california and other places and excluded FLORIDA!!! nothing ever happens here!! grrr im soo mad!! :(

heartnut, I got a response back from Scholastic: "We truly appreciate learning of customer reactions to our products and promotions and have forwarded your comments to our corporate headquarters in New York. We thank you for taking the time to share your concerns with us." So I guess that means, uh...no.

grrrr. yeah come to atlanta you jerks. they go four times to california and no times to the south. NOT FAIR!

It's in my area, but of course, my parents have work. Boo. And it's so close. How irritating.

Why isn't there any in Texas? Texas has a great bit of Harry Potter fans; Dallas or Houston would be excellent places for them to visit. (Or little Whitney, Texas. ;) ) Ah well. I think I'm in England buy July 11th anyways(I'm going there this summer! Whee!) So I'll see. Still; it would have been nice to see a real life Knight Bus. xD

I can't believe they aren't coming to Dallas! I really wanted to go! Oh well, life goes on...

they're coming to the library across from my school!!!!!!!!! i'll so be there right after i get out of finals early :]

I know the midwest is really boring and bare, but Colorado is the exception, it goes east, skips middle, then heads out to west. Wow, I feel good.

Theyre finally coming to St. Louis for something! This makes my sad looking summer that much better :) Keep coming to the Midwest! We miss out on so much!

Woot! Maricopa County! Good thing I looked on the list. I wasn't going to when I saw that the article said East Coast. But they ARE coming to my county!

First Emerson and Ben and now this! Thank merlin for San Diego stops in the Harry Potter most awsome summer ever!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! It comes THE DAY before I get home :( It's so close, yet so far.. whyyyyyy????????? :'( :'( :'( I'm going to ask if I can move my plane tickets up a few days, this is SO not happening.

And why are there no stops in Miami, FL...DISCRIMINATION!!!

I really can't believe they are driving right through little rhode island on june 4th!! ! sad part is they are coming from 10 - 12 (?) on a school day to one library- about 10 mins away. but the good news is, they stop at another library about 20 minutes away from 3 - 5 pm. so , do i skip school, or go later? Such decisions!!! I know i'll be at one of them for sure!

Ahhh! They're stopping at the library i live down the street from! Awesome! :D

east coast my ass, they go from Virginia to Ohio then to the West Coast

I'm surprised they skipped the south, northwest and most of the midwest. I say send an e-mail to Scholastic and ask them to come to where you are, if your city is excluded. I know darn well they have to drive thru my city to go from St. Louis to the west, so they COULD stop if we said pretty please enough times (I hope).
