Today we’re joining in on the fun of Top Ten Tuesday with our Favorite Bookish Halloween Costumes.
Strega Nona
from Strega Nona by Tomie dePaola
There are so many characters who would make adorable costumes. This costume of featuring Strega Nona actually inspired this list.
Mouse
“I’m a Mouse. Duh.”
We know the Burn Book isn’t technically compelling literature that you can order from amazon. So to keep this bookish, we’ll mention Boys, Girls and Other Hazardous Materials by Rosalind Wiseman, which is written by the author who also wrote the book that inspired Mean Girls.
Your Favorite Superheroes
Superheroes are some of our favorite characters, and there are lots you can choose from to represent. Here are a couple of our favorites.
Max
from Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak
One of our friends posted an adorable pic of her son on instagram (this isn’t him, but you get the idea!), and we knew Max had to make this list.
Your Favorite Animal
from Sylvie by Jennifer Sattler
Flamingos are lots of fun.
Your Favorite Occupation
from Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site by Sherri Duskey Rinker
This construction worker sure is cute.
Olivia
from Olivia by Ian Falconer
This costume is so adorable, and you can go as simple (or as over-the-top) as you want. We won’t even tell you the story of when we stalked the publisher booth at BEA to get an Olivia bag!
Your Favorite Harry Potter Character
from Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling
Did you really think we wouldn’t have Harry Potter and Hedwig on this list?
Tinkerbell
from Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie
Brighton Walsh makes an adorable Tinkerbell.
A Kick Ass Heroine
We love heroines who totally kick ass, and we know you do, too. So why not be one for Halloween (or everyday)?
So, that’s our list this week. What’s your favorite bookish Halloween Costume?
