A girl has stolen the spotlight as she dressed in her favorite character, Miss Trunchbull from Matilda, for World Book Day.
While most kids her age want to dress up in cute and adorable characters, 7-year-old UK-based Lilly surprised her mum Laura as she took to St. Marychurch Primary School in Ms. Trunchbull’s costume.
Perfectly representing the Roald Dahl’s fictional headmistress, Lilly donned the 1972 Olympics hoodie complemented with a brown sports bag, a net bag full of shot puts, and a weight belt.
“Matilda is Lilly’s favorite book and one of her favorite films. She wanted to go as Miss Trunchbull – I asked her why not Matilda and she said it was too easy!” the 7-year-old’s proud mother said.
“It was very easy to put together, almost all of it was ordered from eBay and I got the hoodie printed locally. It’s fantastic because a lot of the items can be reused for everyday use – the belt is her step dad’s!
“She was bursting at it all when the whole look came together, she couldn’t wait to go to school! She gets such a buzz from dressing up and everyone knew exactly who she was straight away!”
Another kid that has captured the attention on World Book Day was Isaac Stevenson who dressed up as Eazy muthaf***in’ E, a West Coast rapper.
While the deceased rapper hasn’t produced any books, he was mentioned in plenty of works related to the West Coast rap scene.
“Isaac gets obsessed with stuff.point 257 |
He’s obsessed with BMXing, and he’s obsessed with West Coast rap.point 67 | He’s got a brother who is 18 years old and they watched Straight Outta Compton, obviously he shouldn’t have done because he was like 11 at the time, but it ended up with him getting really into Eazy-E,” the boy’s father, Julian Stevenson, said in an interview with LADbible.point 309 | 1
“Nope, not Dre, which would have been cool, Eazy-E. He is totally obsessed with him.”
