CHILDREN across Wirral will be dressing up as their favourite character for World Book Day today - and we want to see your pictures.
World Book Day will be taking over social media feeds as the event to celebrate books and reading takes place on Thursday, March 3.
As always we're really looking forward to seeing your pictures so click on the box below and send them to us.
They will feature in our online gallery...and may even make it to next week's paper too!
Please include your child's full name, age and school as well as the character they are dressed as with your picture.
