Book Week Dress Up Competition for 2017

August 24, 2017 by Jacqueline Harvey 58 Comments

Hi Everyone,

If you receive my newsletter you’ll already know that I’m running a competition this month (August) and I will extend it to September (as Book Week tends to be celebrated at different times in Term 3).

This year there are three categories! Best Alice-Miranda characters dress up, Best Clemmie characters dress up and Best other characters (that means you can dress up as anyone from any book). Just a tip – you could be one of Alice-Miranda’s friends or Clemmie’s friends too – anyone from those series’.

The prizes will be awesome (including new books and other things you can’t buy in the shops!).

So, no matter who you’ve dressed up as for Book Week – get those entries in! To enter you need to sign up to the newsletter which you can do on the home page of the website and the entry details will be on the newsletter that will come to you shortly after you sign up.

Best of luck (and remember you can dress up at home if your school isn’t celebrating with a Book Parade).

Jacqueline Harvey xx

    I’m currently reading Alice-Miranda in Hollywood, and I adore how Hollywood’s paparazzo, Tyger Lombardi’s favourite author is ‘J L Harvey’! Her favourite author’s name almost shares the same name as MY favourite author!
    Love you Jacqueline! xx

            Hi Eloise,

            Alice-Miranda 17 is the next book after Alice-Miranda in Hollywood. I have some ideas swirling around in my head but suspect, that Alice-Miranda and her friends will be catching up with some old favourites.

            Best wishes,

            Jacqueline

            Hi Tamara,

            Alice-Miranda in Hollywood should be widely available by now! Hope that you enjoy it and, be sure to keep an eye on the events tab of my website, there are some exciting red carpet launch celebrations planned for Sydney and Melbourne.

            Best wishes,

      Hi Kanita,

      As a writer, I do travel quite a bit. I love getting out to meet the amazing fans who inspire me to write the stories. As my writing schedule has been super busy this year, I have not travelled overseas as I usually do.

      Never say never, but there are no plans at this stage to visit UAE or Pakistan.

      Best wishes,

      Jacqueline

      You’ll see that I extended the date for the August competition until the end of September as there were lots of schools still celebrating until the end of the term. You’ll have to be patient.

      Thanks for entering.

    Dear Ms Harvey,

    I am enjoying your books thoroughly, and i love dressing up. Do you have any ideas for the next Alice Miranda or Clementine Rose book? I was thinking of maybe having Alice Miranda or Clementine Rose in Holland. I will always love your books

    Love From Jaida oxx.

      Hi Jaida,

      I could certainly see Alice-Miranda and Clemmie in Holland- thank you for being so interested and taking the time to let me know your ideas.

      I have quite a few ideas swirling around in my head for both of the girls’ next adventures; but Kensy and Max is front and centre in my mind at the moment. I suspect that some old favourite characters might make an appearance in Alice-Miranda 17.

      Best wishes,

      Jacqueline

        Yes Big W has Alice-Miranda and so do lots of other bookshops but it depends where you live as to where is the easiest place to get the books. Booktopia is an online bookshop in Australia you can purchase them through as well.

    I am so dressing up.
    I don’t have anything that is like Alice-Miranda but I do have something like Clementine Rose are you allowed to dress up as Clementine Rose if you are actually much older than her because she is 7 ish maybe or 6. But I am 11 so I was wondering if I am allowed?

    I’m a huge fan of Alice-Miranda. At our school we will have a book week and we will dress up as book characters. How do you dress up Jacinta?

      Hi Tazmeen,

      Jacinta has long blonde hair and you could either go for something sporty like her gymnastics gear or something casual or maybe even a ball dress like she wears in Alice-Miranda at the Palace. I can’t remember off the top of my head what hers looked like so you’d have to do a bit of research. You could even do a school uniform like Alice-Miranda’s on the cover of At School as she goes to the same place. Good luck and don’t forget to enter the August newsletter competition!

      Best wishes,
      Jacqueline
