My son Patrick met a new,emerging author Luke Temple at his school this week.He was able to buy and have a book dedicated to him,Mutating Mansion.He got so taken up with this book,he decided to get dressed up as Drift from that book.Quite casual,fighting mutants and monsters:),but I'm happy to be different and original.No Darth Vaders or Hulks,or Harry Potters here!My daughter is more traditional,Cinderella!!

My son dressed up as Willy Wonka, he's so pleased to be showing it off at school today! He has a medical problem with his eyes if you're wondering why his face looks screwed up :)

Here we have the handmade costumes I made of The Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz and Robin Hood. I love World Book day, always make an effort to make a costume :-) Past years have included Mr Twit and The Mad Hatter!

The Twits! Luckily they are much more pleasant than the characters in real life help making their own costumes whilst I have been ill with flu!

Here is our Charlie Bucket Smile
He's not a massive fan of face paints so we needed something simple! He loves Roald Dahl books so this was perfect.
