Other than the spin off books....

We missed book week as we were in the middle of moving to a new school building, so we are having the "dress up as a character from a book" day today...

DD1 has gone in as Puss In Boots....others have wonderful costumes, some bought, some home made...

However there was a large % of girls in Hannah Montana costumes, or High School musical costumes, or ben 10 costumes...

Now, I KNOW there are working parents, and people with little time or money, but I'd think tis actually cheaper to send them in not in a trademarked licensed outfit, but making do with what you have for a Dennis The Menace or a Pippi Longstocking...

Maybe I'm just old and boring and out of touch but I do think "dress as a character from a book" shouldn;t include Ben 10 and Hannah Montana

but that is what some children like to read - and surely it's good that they are at least reading spin-off books?
Ds for instance is really into Star Wars and has several Star Wars books - he's not as into books as his sisters but at least he will eagerly read a Star Wars book - so he went dressed up as Anakin Skywalker (not in a bought costume though).
Some parents might not be readers themselves, and I suppose making some sort of effort is better than none? Yabu.

YABU - As geekgirl said at least they've made an effort.

When we had book week, one of the teachers dressed as Bob the Builder.
