One of the best things about World Book Day is that kids get to play.  They dress up as a character from a favourite story and spend most of the day playing, either in their imagination or with story or related activities.  It's so important that they get to do this - and I love being part of the celebrations.

Edgar the elephant is very noisy so any event with the word Loud in the title has got to be good!

Thump! Thump! Thump! Edgar the very noisy elephant visited Southend Children's Book Festival with Ruby and his mice friends.
