Look back at 175 quirky pictures of children celebrating World Book Day 2025

With World Book Day right around the corner (Thursday, March 5), we have taken a look back at some of last year’s incredible outfits to celebrate.

From Where’s Wally to Harry Potter to Dear Zoo, children from schools across Portsmouth and its surrounding area pulled out the stops.

The theme for World Book Day this year is ‘Go All In’ in a bid to promote the importance of reading in a modern and fun way, with youngsters also benefitting from a book token to spend at participating stores.
