World Book Day Week 2016

March 1, 2016

activities-background

World Book Day is almost here again! The official day is Thursday the 3rd, but my WBD begins today – I’ve got a busy week of four school visits in four days. If I’m coming to your school, please come and say hello!

If you’re thinking about dressing up as one of my characters, it’s very easy – I wrote a blog last year with some handy tips about how to dress like Daisy and Hazel. I would love to see your pictures, and hear your stories, and I might even put my favourites into a blog post at the end of the week! Please send everything to my email address, redbreastedbird@gmail.com.

Whoever you’re going as, though, I hope you have a wonderful week! It’s so exciting that we all get to celebrate books like this, and I’m proud to be a part of it for the second year. Happy WBD 2016!
