World Book Day 2020 celebrations

World Book Day 2020 celebrations

World Book Day 2020 provided a wonderful opportunity for Prep children from as young as three years old to celebrate reading and share their love of their favourite books.

Dressed as characters from their chosen works, pupils were encouraged to join together with millions of other children all over the world to share stories, spark imaginations and help inspire others to become readers for life.

And the top ten children’s book authors for 2020, according to the children at Bridgewater School?

This year’s most popular authors:

  1. Roald Dahl
  2. David Walliams
  3. J.K. Rowling
  4. Julia Donaldson
  5. Lewis Carroll
  6. Dr. Seuss
  7. Beatrix Potter
  8. Brothers Grimm
  9. Jeff Kinney
  10. Jacqueline Wilson

For us, achievement means so much more when it is coupled with true enjoyment
