World Book Day is on Thursday 2nd March.
So...
What book are you reading? What made you choose it?
And, so the children don't have all the fun,what fictional character would you like to dress up as?!

"Just read War of the Worlds ........... yes, I had Richard Burton's voice in my head 
How was the book?"
Great; the album pretty much follows the book. The 1950's film isn't too bad ............ but it's written in typical Victorian style and I love it  |

A character from another book ....... Phileas Fogg! Can't really dress as a forty foot fire breathing, death dealing armoured alien can I? Lol |

I'm reading (although devouring would be a more appropriate word) The Night Circus.
I'm not entirely sure who I would dress up as though. Author-wise I'd want to be Poe. Character... no idea. |

Life On The Mississippi - Mark Twain.
Before he became a journalist and writer, Mark Twain trained as a steam boat pilot on the Mississippi and it's his thoughts and remembrances of one of the world's greatest rivers in its steam heyday. Like an American Dickens with the same wit, warmth and humanity.
I'm not big on dressing up, but I'm going to choose Bertie Wooster as it's in keeping with the theme and, well, red socks. |

Big fan of Mark Twain...had a real wit.
Jeeves & Worcester...brilliant. Laurie & Fry did such a good adaptation to tv... |

Washington: The Indispensable Man. It's a biography on George Washington. I've got this crazy idea of reading up on as many US presidents as possible, in chronological order! |

I do live adventure stories , tales of daring do
I adore Micheal Murpurgo ,Roald Dahl and Enid Blyton, books are the greatest gifts you can give a child . The horrible histories are just splendid too |

Currently reading Down and out in Paris and London by George Orwell, though I admit it's a slow burner!
I'd like to dress up as Commander Sam Vimes!
In fact, I'd like to be him |

Need to find a new book to read!
Last read The Blade Artist by Irvine Welsh that I got for crimbo.....was ok but could've been better.

I'm reading a uni book. For this reason I haven't started a book for pleasure as it's another distraction.
I'd be a postmodern hefty Holly Golightly. It's the hair and the ability to 'ave a fag all elegant like. |

Also don't let the children find the knotty boys books .. school assembly would be embarrassing  |
