TODAY marks World Book Day – the day which sees children across the town dressing up as their favourite literary character to celebrate books and reading.
As always, we were really looking forward to seeing your photographs and we’ve already seen so many brilliant outfits.
From Peter Pan to Harry Potter, Charlie Bucket to Alice in Wonderland, and Matilda to Gangsta Granny, there was certainly a wide variety of outfits.
It’s not too late to send us your child’s photo – please click here to share a picture or use the link at the bottom of the page.
