World Book Day: Another 20 fantastic costumes as children across Sunderland dress up as their favourite book characters

Children across the region are dressing up as part of World Book Day today.

World Book Day – on Thursday, March 3 – looks to allow every child across the country a chance to pick up, read and enjoy books and storytelling.

The celebrations are back this year and children across Sunderland have dressed up as their favourite characters.

Here are just some of the brilliant pictures sent into the Echo from families across Wearside.
