Happy World
Book Day! I am ridiculously excited about this day, even though I don’t really
get involved with activities. I am visiting my daughter’s class at school to
read a book later today, but that’s about it. Still, I love any excuse to talk
about books, to pick up a book, to worship books and the art of reading. And
later this month we celebrate books and writing with the Scribe Festival right
here in Middlewich. Fantastic!
I heard a
lot of news coverage about parents complaining that they have to dress their children
up in World Book Day costumes. We don’t do that in my local area. My daughter’s
school are running a game where they ring a bell at regular intervals, the
children must stop what they are doing, pick up a book, and read. Sounds like
my kind of game… The chosen book theme is Mr Men, which is a childhood
favourite of mine. I have selected some vintage books from my personal
collection to take for my “Mystery Reader” session.
Have a
fabulous, booky day, my friends!
