We will be celebrating this years World Book Day on March 2nd with Star Wars, dressing up as a character and reading a lovely set of books we have been sent from Egmont UK. The best news is that we have a set of Star Wars Adventures in Wild Space books for one lucky reader to win too!
There are so many great characters to dress up as from Star Wars, and some Mummies who are very clever, and have the time, can make a fab outfit for this day to inspire everyone to use their reading glasses more and tuck into a good book.
A great idea for little ones, is to dress up as an Ewok. All you need is a brown bear onesie, and a brown T Shirt. This is the cutest idea that all Star Wars fans will love. There are loads of instructions on Pinterest.
Other favourites are Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Princess Leia or a Storm Trooper.
I am not a huge fan of masks or costumes, so Mummy was wondering what I could dress up as. Then she spotted a brilliant Storm Trooper onesie in a shop and thought it was perfect. Big brother Luke drew, then cut out a Storm Trooper mask for me, and Mummy stuck it into a mask I already had, that fitted my face. There you have it, the easiest Star Wars costume ever!
We have been sent an awesome bundle of Star Wars, Adventures in Wild Space books from Egmont UK, to celebrate World Book Day and the launch of the brand new title which is available on March 9 2017.
This set of four books is aimed at 8-11 year olds, and has some black and white illustrations along with easy to read text. They are £6.99 each.
My big bro was immediately taken by the covers and the graphics (He is a huge art and graphics fan, studying both for his GCSE’s).
The series of books are all about Milo and Lina Graf who are searching for their kidnapped parents in a galaxy far, far away. The parents are held captive by a villain, Captain Korda of the Galactic Empire.
Big bro has started reading these books to me, and we are really enjoying them. They are great for children who can read by themselves, and we can’t wait to see the traps, adventures and missions that Milo and Lina face. And will they rescue their parents?
We were also sent a couple of Star Wars Rogue one books – a fantastic Mission Files book which holds lots of classified information, photos and cool drawings – a must for fans at £7.99 The other book is a Profiles and Poster book, with 40 stickers, layouts of the space ships, and TWELVE posters including a giant one too! All for £5.99
You can win a set of the Star Wars: Adventures in Wild Space series, as listed below. To enter, simply let us know who your favourite Star Wars character is. You can gain more entries every day by following the Rafflecopter instructions too.
