And for a genius solution to making a posable framework that I could cover with bat-like faux leather. Mike O’Connell, managing director of Rubies UK, added: “This is a fantastic opportunity to promote the power of reading to children. This gloriously ghostly new series from the creator of EVIL EMPEROR PENGUIN is perfect for 7-9 year olds and fans of THE WORST WITCH and WITCH WARS. On World Book Day itself, Rubies and Laura will launch another competition where entrants can post a picture of themselves dressed up in Rubies’ Amelia Fang costumes on Instagram to win a series of signed Amelia Fang books.To prevent the shiny bits from fraying, I faced the pointy tips and just pressed under the long sides before topstitching to the skirt. And when the King’s spoiled son Tangine captures Squashy, Amelia and her friends must escape the party to plan a daring rescue! Laura is the creator of the Evil Emperor Penguin books and illustrator of series including Witch Wars, Enid Blyton\'s Famous Five and Cornelia Funke\'s Dragon Rider, as well as many other children’s books. It’s wonderful to know that my fans and readers will be able to easily access this costume, which can be worn for events such as World Book Day and Halloween, or just for fun. This classic vampire costume is great for any fancy dress party, Halloween costumes, Trick or Treating, school plays, cosplay, and book days!

Amelia Fang is a fantastic licence for us to acquire as it is a beloved book series, with a strong and growing group of fans consisting of both children and parents. The fan-favourite book series adds to Rubies’ extensive list of official licences, with everything from the superheroes of Marvel and DC to kids favourites with Dennis the Menace and Horrid Henry. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. Rubies has teamed up with Novel Entertainment for the promotional activity which offers an exclusive giveaway alongside the Horrid Henry dress-up costume. Rubies also recognises that some children do not enjoy the thought of dressing up and not all have access to costumes so, as part of its All Dressed Up campaign, the company helps by encouraging more donations of costumes to be re-used after the event.We can’t wait to see children have the chance to dress-up and immerse themselves in the world of Horrid Henry’s Vile Vacation. It’s a beloved book series with a strong and growing group of fans consisting of children and parents alike. Emmy award-winning actor Neil Patrick Harris has invented a band of magical apprentices who use their conjuring know-how to stop crime and escape from sticky situations. Laura is the creator of EVIL EMPEROR PENGUIN and illustrator of WITCH WARS, as well as many other children’s books. Aimed at seven to nine year olds there are currently seven books in the series and the highly versatile character of Amelia Fang works equally well with World Book Day and Halloween ranges.
