Fab World Book Day, as always.

The gang's all here - the 3 witches from 'Macbeth', Minnie the Minx (from 'The Beano') and Binky the Clown from 'Garfield' (a parody of Bozo The Clown)

(Actually, the witches may very well be the Wicked Witches Of The East & West, and Gilda The Good Witch Of The South, from 'The Wizard Of Oz'!!)

It was Narnia vs Oz in our house as the White Witch Jadis (Charlotte 7) faced off against Dorothy Gale. (Dorothy 5). Charlotte had planned her costume for several months - she asked Father Christmas for a faux fur coat in preparation. Dorothy was just pleased to finally get something with her name on it.

Here is Willy Wonka. He has enjoyed all the Roald Dahl books so much. The way children become hooked into the stories is wonderful. With clamers of 'more'... 'More' after a chapter finishes. We ❤️ Books.

My DD decided she wanted to go as an oompa-loompa from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - enjoyed the facepainting but I drew the line at letting her dye her hair green!
