Book Week

Last week was Book Week at the boys' school, a week filled with fun and exciting activities to celebrate books! The boys got to meet Michael Bauer, renowed author of "Don't Call Me Ishmael". Boys also dressed-up as their favourite book character. S1 went to school as Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean series, and S2 as Obi Wan Kenobi from Star Wars. Yes. There are books on these two popular movies. S2 whom is a lazy reader, came home announcing that "books are food for our minds" and proceeded to read!! Real good, huh?

bp - No lah. Didn't take pics. I didn't make them special costumes. Just made-do with a khaki waistcoat. S1 had some Jack Sparrow items like the sword and belt, and I did buy him a Pirate hat.

As for S2, he had the light saber and I used an old piece of cloth to tie around his waist for the light saber.
