World Book Day 2016

If you’ve been following the hashtag (#WorldBookDay) or looked at just about any educational news site, you’ll know that 3rd March 2016 is World Book Day. Judging by what’s happening on Twitter, there’s lots of teachers and pupils celebrating by dressing up as their favourite characters.

 
However, if your school isn’t recreating a scene from the Great Hall in Hogwarts or standing a couple of feet taller dressed as the Cat in the Hat then do not fear, we’ve dug into the archives to find a few posts from the past to get your literary juices flowing.
