And still there are more! Lots of lovely Alice-Miranda's and Clementine Rose's for Book Week 2013

Dear Friends,

It is so exciting to be receiving yet more photos of friends dressed up as Clementine Rose and me for Book Week Celebrations.  We've just been to the Melbourne Writers' Festival which was amazing and there were even girls at Jacqueline Harvey's first event who came in costume.  Thank you to all the incredible parents and teachers who encourage their children to have fun with books.  The photos are of girls from all over the country.  My apologies to the beautiful Clementine Rose near the bottom of the post, whose photo I can't get to turn the right way around.  There are girls from The Bush School, there's Emily, Gabriella, Natalie, Olivia, Ella, girls from St Martin of Tours and girls from the Art Play session at the Melbourne Writers' Festival.  I've just added Ella, Kira and Lauren and now Dani too. 
If you'd like to appear on the blog please send your picture to Jacqueline@jacquelineharvey.com.au



 
 






Have a wonderful week everyone,
Lots of love,
Alice-Miranda xxx

Book Week fun continues - lots more dress ups!

Dear Friends,

I wanted to post some more photos of gorgeous girls dressed up for Book Week (as me and Clementine Rose!)  Here's Ashleigh off to New York and Nikki all ready for school.  Down below we have Lauren off to a party at sea, Sara Violet as a fabulous Clementine Rose and Caryss as Alice-Miranda.  She won the Year 3 costume competition and her mum made the whole outfit.  So many clever mums out there.  Don't they all look amazing!  Last of all we have Librarian extraordinaire Mrs Thomson from OLGC at Forestville ready to go out for a ride.  Please send your photos to Jacqueline@jacquelineharvey.com.au  I can't wait to see them!
I know there are more to come so please keep sending them through.  I'm off to Melbourne this weekend so don't be sad if your picture doesn't go up until mid next week as I know Jacqueline Harvey is pretty busy over the coming few days.
Lots of love,
Alice-Miranda xx
