Other than the spin off books....
We missed book week as we were in the middle of moving to a new school building, so we are having the "dress up as a character from a book" day today...
DD1 has gone in as Puss In Boots....others have wonderful costumes, some bought, some home made...
However there was a large % of girls in Hannah Montana costumes, or High School musical costumes, or ben 10 costumes...
Now, I KNOW there are working parents, and people with little time or money, but I'd think tis actually cheaper to send them in not in a trademarked licensed outfit, but making do with what you have for a Dennis The Menace or a Pippi Longstocking...
Maybe I'm just old and boring and out of touch but I do think "dress as a character from a book" shouldn;t include Ben 10 and Hannah Montana
