YOUNGSTERS at a Teesside school celebrated Book Character Day by arriving at school dressed as their favourite storybook heroes. Favourites amongst the girls from Teesside Preparatory School, in Eaglescliffe, included Goldilocks, Cruella de Ville, Little Red Riding Hood, Snoopy, and an assortment of witches and Harry Potter look-alikes.
Costumes worn by staff included Bob the Builder, Captain Hook and Pocahontas.
Headteacher Mike Abraham, who took on the role of Inspector Gadget for the day, said: "Anything which encourages the girls to enjoy reading is worthwhile, and an amazing amount of ingenuity went into their costumes. We've all had great fun."
