The children had so much fun dressing up in pyjamas or as their favourite characters, and sharing some of their favourite stories with the class.  See if you can guess what character they are??

World Book Day changes lives through a love of books and reading. It is a charity that operates in the UK and Ireland. Their mission is to promote reading for pleasure, offering every child and young person the opportunity to have a book of their own.

Reading for pleasure is the single biggest indicator of a child’s future success – more than their family circumstances, their parents’ educational background or their income. We want to see more children, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, with a life-long habit of reading for pleasure and the improved life chances this brings them.

World Book Day

Designated by UNESCO as a worldwide celebration of books and reading, World Book Day is marked in over 100 countries around the globe.
