Dressing Up For Book Week Delight

Book Week is a celebration like no other, where kiddos don the guise of beloved characters who have captured their hearts and minds. Whether you're an ardent bookworm or simply looking for a last-minute costume that isn't Elsa or Batman, we've got you covered!

01 Fairy Princess

Add a touch of whimsy to any fairytale-inspired costume with our magical Mushroom Basket. Pair the look with Olivia and the Fairy Princesses by Ian Falconer.
02 Dear Zoo

Dear Zoo by Rod Campbell is a classic favourite. Bring Dinkum Dog Buddy along for a Book Week costume that will never go out of style.
03 The Little Mermaid

Sure to be a favourite look at Book Week this year, pick up a Shell Bag for your Little Mermaid. Originally a dark tale by Hans Christian Andersen, take a peek at the kid-friendly version for preschoolers by Ronne Randall.
04 The Wizard of Oz

Dorothy and the Lion, Tin Man, Scarecrow and Toto make adorable ensembles for siblings. Introduce your kiddos to this beloved classic by reading a chapter of The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum at bedtime.
05 Buzzy Bees

Illuminate your child on the magic of bees with The Honeybee by Kirsten Hall. Tote a Luggy-ful of native flowers along with your book in the parade.
06 Little Red Riding Hood

For teachers and parents partaking in the parade, we recommend The Little Red Riding Hood by Mara Alperin for a fun-filled cover idea.
