Pupils in Skegness bring fiction alive for World Book Day

Joanne Hazard, of the Richmond School, said pupils enjoyed a pyjama day and settled down to enjoy some of their favourite stories.

She said: "We have had a wonderful day full of books, favourite stories and characters.

"Bringing books alive is a great way to create a love of reading for the future.

"Exploring the pages of an amazing book is something everyone should try and share with others.

"Opening your mind to a new journey into the unknown is a brilliant way to extend your knowledge of words or to just have fun with your imagination.

"Reading is something we can all do during snatched moments during each day or an hour or two."
