Book Week Dress Up Competition for 2017

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

Hey there
Why can’t there be an event overseas or in UAE or Pakistan

August 31, 2017 at 4:02 pm

    Jacqueline Harvey

     

    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

    Hi Tamara,

    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.

    Best wishes,

    Hi Bethany,

    That sounds amazing – did you enter the newsletter competition? I’ve extended the August competition until the end of September as there are lots of schools still celebrating Book Week right until the end of term. Hope you enjoy Hollywood.

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.

    Jacqueline Harvey

     

    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

Hi Jaqueline, I’m a huge fan of yours. I have written a story similar like Alice-Miranda, is that OK? Thanks if it is!

    Jacqueline Harvey

     

    Hello,

    What are you using the story for? If you’ve written it for school or for your own enjoyment then that’s no problem at all.Thanks for your kind words and I hope that you continue to enjoy the stories.

    Best wishes,
    Jacqueline

    Hi Booker,

    Thank you for the compliment. It’s ok to write a story similar to Alice-Miranda as long as you don’t have it published:).

    Best wishes,

When I signed up, I didn’t really receive a welcome message. I just received the august newsletter about a week after I signed up.

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?

From Grace

September 10, 2017 at 4:31 pm

    Yes please dress up – you still have a few days until the end of the month to submit your entry. I look forward to it.

    Best wishes,

    Hi Ava,

    I get a lot of requests for more Jacinta. I’ll see what I can do. I’m not sure what the next Alice-Miranda book will be called but I have the idea for the story. I’ll let you know as soon as I have it sorted out!

Hello Ms Harvey
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?

Your biggest fan ever,
Tazmeen <3

    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

Hi
I have an idea for your next Alice Miranda book. She can go to Australia and go there for a camp with all of her friends and look at all of the kangaroos and Aussie animals
From Ava biggest fan!!!
