Lights! Cameras! Book Week!
I LOVE dressing my characters. Over the years lots of readers (and their parents) have sent me their Truly Tan pics from Book Week. I’ve compiled my own little parade to give you some ideas. See below.
Scroll down for other costume ideas, too! Plus a little bit about my next TV appearance.
Want to dress like Danny Best? Too easy! Orange t-shirt, green checked shorts, blonde wig. Personally, I’d go as Mae, Danny’s friend. She only ever wears a cow onesie…
Who would I go dressed as? Weeeell, I’d probably go as Matron Pluckrose from Tensy Farlow and the Home for Mislaid Children: 1950s New Look, blonde wig like Patsy from Ab Fab and fox fur stole. Sans the cigarettes, of course…
Or, I’d go dressed as Reafen, the goblin elder, in The Fourteenth Summer of Angus Jack: Faded ball gown (the more garish the better) black wig piled high, pink feather boa, loads of bling, and Blundstone work boots.
Go forth! Dress up!
