Perfect For
Book Week & School Literature Days: Spot-on for primary school Book Week parades, storybook character events and Julia Donaldson themed days where teachers request recognisable literary villains.
World Book Day & Dress-Up Events: Works for World Book Day celebrations, library story time dress-up sessions and reading festival costume competitions where judges reward book-faithful outfits.
How to Wear It

Frequently Asked Questions
What age range does this Highway Rat costume fit?
Sized for primary school children approximately ages 4-8. Check our size chart image for specific measurements.
Can this work as a general pirate costume?
Absolutely — the tricorn hat, cape and striped trousers read as classic pirate or highwayman. Swap the rat mask for an eye patch and it works for non-book-specific pirate parties.
