World Book Day – Fantastic Mr. Fox

It was World Book Day today and in schools across the land children were encouraged to dress up as a favourite book character in order to spend the day immersed in their world.

Ollie and Jamie had been looking forward to this for some time and we made sure to push the magic button good and early to call upon the talents of SuperHil to rustle up a couple of costumes from some bits and pieces around the house.  As usual, she came up trumps.

Bean and Fantastic Mr Fox

Unsurprisingly, Ollie wanted to go as some sort of animal, and Jamie was slightly less enthusiastic about elaborate dressing up, preferring to go as something that involved a weapon of some sort.  The perfect combination emerged very rapidly as the whole family are big fans of the wonder that was Roald Dahl, and so we realised that the two boys could compliment each other perfectly by going as Mr Bean and Fantastic Mr Fox.  Jamie even had a bottle of ‘cider’ that he carried round all day.

Ollie’s prop was slightly less expected, but nevertheless completely in character….  You see that handbag he is carrying in the picture?  Well, shortly before he left the house he came running downstairs with it, announcing that it was the final piece of his costume.  A handbag?  We asked, perplexed.  And then Ollie emptied the bag out to reveal its contents:

Lunch

Inside were 4 chickens/birds and a clutch of feathers that had been extracted from a feather boa in the dressing up box.  These were, of course, the latest items that Fantastic Mr Fox had poached from Boggis’ chicken house number 1.  And who can argue with the logic of that?

So Bean and Fantastic Mr Fox went into school, with Bean occasionally popping shots off with his gun and the Fox more in character than Daniel Day Lewis overdosing on the Alexandra technique.  He apparently spent the day being chased by farmers and loved every minute of it.
