About this deal

My baby is unfazed by Jess, Tess, Ness and Cress being turned into mice, but she likes signing ‘Cat’ when Mog chases them. I have to say, for my first attempt at a world book day costume, I am pretty pleased with the results. Grab a pair of big bros, Dad or Grandad’s white Y fronts (which they can wear over trousers) and a red cape and you are done! This does mean that some bits might fall off throughout the day, so if you would prefer to sew them on to be more secure than please do, but I'm happy as long as I get my photos and everyone sees him in his costume when he arrives at school.

Condition was supposed to be very good - a little disappointed, as front cover was scratched and cover back and front had black sticky electrical tape stuck around the edges of the book. And, be sure to take inspiration from some of the best children's books as well as these classic children's book quotes. They stood out, and still do, for their brightness, the cheeky innocence of the strong black lines of the drawings, for Meg’s clumsiness and Mog’s forbearance. Personalised advertising may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of information under California and other state privacy laws, and you may have a right to opt out. Includes: plastic construction helmet, builder's belt, hammer, screwdriver, pliers, wrench and a plastic box cutter style knife and one child sized plastic yellow hard hat.

For Robin, fashion a bow and arrow set by tying a piece of string to a bendy stick, and painting poster tube brown. So we focused on a particular moment when Alice becomes stuck in the White Rabbit’s house after growing too big. For many books set in the present day you can send them in their own clothes - if you think of things like the Tracey Beaker books, but even things like Coraline (more recognizable if you match the colours from the film, but not essential ,say you are the one from the book, not the film! Add a golden crown (a paper cut-out one will match the book's illustrations) to this jumpsuit costume and practise your regal wave. It is almost World Book Day and we are excitedly getting Ethan ready to dress up as one of his favourite characters, Max from the story Where the Wild Things Are.

Transform your Hobbit-lover into an actual hobbit with this costume (make sure you fashion the sought-after Ring in tinfoil to include with the outfit) and prepare them for Middle Earth. Last year my son decided to go as the fierce rabbit hero Podkin One-Ear from The Legend of Podkin One-Ear by Kieran Larwood. And finally I don't like to spend a fortune making it, especially as it's unlikely that he'll be wearing it again. Accessorise with a broom to become Meg the witch (of Meg and Mog picture book fame) or Winnie the witch (a black toy cat could stand in for Wilbur) or Mildred Hubble, the Worst Witch. Dress your child in blue clothes and then get creative with the loo roll or bandages if you have plenty in.I figured that the easiest way to create the Mog from Meg and Mog costume was… A stripy jumper, black leggings and socks, a cat tail and some kitty ears, It turned out they were much easier to come by than the funky patterned tights were proving to be. Cut out a mask from card and get your little one to help you decorate it with strips of colourful tissue paper. James Bigglesworth, nicknamed "Biggles", is the fictional pilot and adventurer of the Biggles adventure books. I’m sure there are many parents out there who have been planning for the event, which takes place this Thursday, for weeks, meticulously constructing the perfect outfit. For our toddler, we used a black pen to spot an old sleepsuit and coloured the neck in red- our very own Dalmatian!

We might even remember to have the conversation with our children about a week in advance, ask who they would like to go as and come up with some kind of plan. A fairly easy one to turnaround from existing wardrobe contents – a blue dress, with red ribbons in your child’s hair and carrying a pile of books. If you have a child who’s obsessed with sticks, then this is the perfect book choice for World Book Day. More recently he wrote a pilot for ITV entitled ‘Martin’ starring Alan Davies and Alison Steadman and a radio series ‘The Very Old Pretenders’ for BBC Radio 4 starring Rebecca Front and David Haig. Or if you don't want to lose a hoodie to it, just Pritt stick or staple a piece of paper to the front with '1972 Olympics' on.

You may be surprised yourself how many of these characters appeared in many, many books before appearing on-screen. Another great idea, taking a secondary character from a book, but who is well known enough and making THAT your World Book costume idea - it's inspired. This collection of modern must haves and classic reads is sure to peak their interest and spark a love of literature. This Julia Donaldson classic is a great one for World Book Day, as it’s pretty easy to pull together with clothes you already have.
