As part of the school’s Book Week activities, a world of books had come to life through the student’s crazy and captivating costumes.

Animals, dolls, things I cannot explain — to see it would be the only way to believe it.

Luckily, Rechelle snapped a few photos to show the characters usually found within the covers.
