It's World Book Day
The independent initiative aims to foster a life-long love of books and reading among youngsters around the world.
Students in many schools on the Island will be dressing up as characters from their favourite books.
Head of English at Ramsey Grammar School, Julie Owen, says the school has planned a "readathon" - albeit it will take place on Friday.
She explains just what it will entail:
Teenager made 'knuckleduster' on way to fatal fight
Witness accused of lying to police following friend's death
Jenkins v Thomas in battle for the top job
MHKs will pick the new chief minister next Tuesday
Two candidates to compete for chief minister position
