THE children at Cosheston VC School dressed up to celebrate World Book Day last week.

They came dressed as a character from their favourite story and shared the story with their friends.

The annual event, celebrated this year on March 3, is a global celebration of books and reading, and is marked in over 100 countries.

A number of special events were held by Pembrokeshire libraries, including story times, craft sessions, book sales, and author talks.

World Book Day is a celebration of authors, illustrators and a celebration of the importance of reading.
