TODAY marks World Book Day – the day which sees children across the county dressing up as their favourite character to celebrate books and reading.

As always, we are really looking forward to seeing your pictures.

Send us your photographs by using the form at the bottom of this story for the chance to appear in our online gallery and to be included in next week's paper. 

Please include your child’s full name, age, the school they attend and what they dressed up as.

First celebrated in 1995, World Book Day encourages children to read, with pupils in full-time education given a voucher to be spent on books.
