World Book Day 2014 (by sarah)

Today is World Book Day - Jeany is sick and not at school but I hope she'll get to go in tomorrow when her school are doing their celebration. She has opted to be a Marsh Wiggle this year, from the Narnia books which she has just finished her second read of. We love World Book Day at the household Snell-Pym 🙂

So far Jean has been Aladdin with a little papier mache lamp with a home made fairy doll in it, Moppet out of Beatrix Potter , a dinosaur from Harry and the Bucketful of Dinosaurs , I think she went as Hermione or something one year - I recall she wasn't really dressed up but I had to plait her hair and she had a stack of books as part of the costume and she is a Harry Potter nut, last year she went as a Dwarf from The Hobbit .

If she is feeling well enough we are having a read-a-thon today instead of films and I might do some book cup cakes if I get my college work to an acceptable level of completion. Although her glands are up so she maybe sadly be on soup and smoothies instead - cakes can be frozen 🙂

coughs technique for keeping my children occupied whilst I try and do the homework/tidying/work!

p.s. the World Book Day website is a good look for parents but a better look for those interested in writing especially for children.

p.p.s. Jean is also reviewing books she reads over on Orange Monster for those who are interested in either Jeany or a child's opinion on the literature out there.
