Happy World Book Day 2021! This has been a strange World Book Day, because of the lockdown, but I've been inspired to see all the different ways that people have still found to celebrate books and reading! It's an amazing thing for an author to see their books and characters being celebrated – so here are some of the brilliant pictures I've seen this year, with thanks to everyone who's taken the time to make these astonishing creations!
I know #WorldBookDay can get a bit silly but my nephew loves reading all year round *and* loved making this cake for his school’s #WorldBookDay2021 bake-off.

Hello @whatSFSaid it is Ruby here. I have been doing a #WorldBookDay competition for @DraytonJunior and I decided to do Varjak Paw! You will probably recognise the characters and I really enjoyed doing them. My favourite character is Hollie. Thank you. pic.twitter.com/uc8vwKvSHT

@whatSFSaid My son (who also made the Varjak Paw cake you saw yesterday!) has dressed up as Varjak Paw for #WorldBookDay2021 today! Our ears and face paint didn’t arrive in time, so we had to put something together last minute, but he really wanted you to see it anyway! pic.twitter.com/hRMibyft30
