Book week costumes have a harder job than Halloween ones. A child has to sit at a desk, eat lunch, run at recess and still look like the character at the afternoon parade. The ones I point parents toward are built on clothes the child already likes, with one or two handmade details carrying the character. Felt, poster board, a thrifted jacket and a cardboard prop will do more than a packaged set that itches by ten o'clock. The list runs from picture-book animals to chapter-book heroes, so there's something for a toddler and something for a ten-year-old who wants to be taken seriously. For each one I've covered the clothes, the hair or headpiece, any light face paint, the props and the shoes. Keep props soft, check every hem against the shoe, and let your child make at least one piece themselves.

Headpieces That Last From Drop-Off to Home Time
Look down this list and you'll notice that most of these characters live on the head: a hat, ears, a crown, a hood. It's also the first thing a child pulls off. The problem is rarely the look. It's weight and grip. A tall hat or crown that feels light in your hand becomes a nuisance after two hours, because it slides every time the child bends over a worksheet.
What I use to anchor them
- A plain fabric headband as the base for ears, horns and antennae. Fix the pieces to the band, not to the hair, and wrap the band in matching felt so it disappears.
- Thin round elastic under the chin for tall hats and wide brims, loose enough to slide two fingers underneath.
- Felt lining inside any foam or card crown. Bare edges rub a red line across the forehead by lunchtime.
- Two bobby pins crossed in an X for small caps and bows. One straight pin works loose; two crossed ones hold.
- Fabric glue or a few stitches for felt on fabric. White craft glue dries stiff and cracks off the first time the piece bends.
Have your child wear the finished headpiece for a full hour at home while playing normally. If they reach up to fix it more than a couple of times, make it lighter or anchor it better before the big day.
1. The Cat In The Hat Costume

The hat does nearly all the work here, so I spend my time on it and keep the rest plain: a black long-sleeve shirt, black leggings or pants, a white felt oval on the chest and a black fabric tail at the waistband. A big red bow tie brings in the character's color. You can buy the striped hat, but a poster-board tube wrapped in red and white felt weighs far less, and a light hat is a hat that stays upright. I run elastic under the chin or stitch the hat to a headband, because a tall hat tips forward the first time a child looks down. A small black nose and three whiskers per cheek in skin-safe face paint, white gloves and black sneakers finish it. A cardboard fishbowl or a copy of the book is the only prop it needs.
2. Matilda Wormwood Costume

Matilda is the costume I suggest when there are two days' notice and no sewing machine. A plain blue dress over a white collared shirt, white ankle socks and black Mary Janes or ballet flats come straight out of most school wardrobes. Hair goes in a neat side part, or add a red ribbon headband for a little color. No makeup beyond rosy cheeks. The books are the real costume, so tie a small stack together with ribbon, and pick paperbacks: a child carrying three hardcovers around school will hand them to you before morning recess. A toy newt in a clear plastic tub is a nod to her classroom prank that older readers always spot.
3. Paddington Bear Costume

Paddington reads from across a playground because of two things, the blue coat and the floppy red hat. Put the coat over a red shirt with brown pants or leggings. Classrooms get warm, so if your child runs hot, swap it for an unlined blue jacket or cardigan; a lined winter coat worn all day is miserable. I tack round brown felt ears just under the hat brim with a few stitches so they peek out rather than perching on top. A small brown nose and whisker dots in washable paint, then red rain boots or brown sneakers. The cardboard suitcase covered in travel stickers is the fun part to make together. Tie a paper luggage label to the collar with yarn, loosely so it slips off, and hide a toy marmalade sandwich inside the case.
4. Peter Rabbit Costume

Plenty of children already own a bunny costume. What turns it into Peter Rabbit is the blue jacket, so that's the piece to hunt for. Start with a pale shirt and pants in white, gray or light brown, then put a button-front blue jacket or cardigan on top. An adult should pin the pom-pom tail with a safety pin, placed a little high on the back so it doesn't press when the child sits. Long felt ears on a fabric headband flop over unless you sandwich a pipe cleaner between two layers of felt, which I always do. Add a pink nose and fine whiskers, brown slip-ons or flexible sneakers, and a felt radish or fabric carrot in a light basket. Leave the basket nearly empty. Small arms tire fast.
5. Alice In Wonderland Costume

Alice is all about the apron. A light-blue knee-length dress and a crisp white apron are the whole silhouette, so if you can't find an apron, cut one from white felt, which doesn't fray and needs no hemming, and tie it on with ribbon. White tights or ankle socks and black Mary Janes go underneath. Long hair stays loose with a black ribbon headband; on short hair the band alone carries it. A touch of cheek color is plenty. For a prop I'd choose a small plush white rabbit over anything hard, though a cardboard pocket watch covered in metallic paper is quick to make. Before the day, have your child sit cross-legged on the floor in the dress. If the hem rides up or pulls, go a size up. It's a kind choice for a child who won't tolerate masks or wigs.
6. Max Wild Thing Costume

Max's wolf suit is really a white hoodie and white sweatpants, which is why I suggest it so often for younger Where the Wild Things Are fans. Sew or glue gray felt buttons down the front and pin a soft fabric tail to the waistband. Pointed felt ears go on the hood with fabric glue; ordinary craft glue tends to crack and let go. Felt claws at the cuffs are optional. The gold crown can be flexible foam or poster board, and lining the inside band with felt stops it rubbing a sore line across the forehead. No face paint needed. White sneakers or nonslip slipper shoes finish it. A cardboard boat with your child's name on the side makes a sweet photo prop, but it stays with the teacher during lessons and at home for trick-or-treating.
7. Fancy Nancy Costume

This is the one costume where I tell parents to stop editing. Fancy Nancy is more-is-more, so a sparkly dress, ruffled skirt or bright tutu over patterned leggings is only the start. Then comes a fancy cardigan, a feather-free boa and a few strands of plastic beads. Real feathers shed all over a classroom, which is why feather-free matters. Ballet flats with removable ribbon bows beat hard dress shoes. A high ponytail or bouncy curls with a small toy tiara, a little kid-safe glitter gel on the cheeks, oversized sunglasses and a tiny purse. Let your child clash the colors; that is the character. My one rule is that necklaces sit above the waist and everything comes off in seconds for lunch and recess.
8. Madeline Costume

Madeline's yellow hat is the detail people recognize, so it's the one piece worth getting right. Take a plain sun hat, wrap the crown with black ribbon so the ends hang at the back, and stitch thin elastic under the chin, because a wide brim catches every breeze on a parade route. Underneath goes a navy coat or A-line dress with a crisp white collar, white ankle socks and black Mary Janes. White gloves look sweet but come off the minute there's glue or paint, so tuck them in a pocket for the parade. A short bob, natural waves or two braids all sit well under the hat. Rosy cheeks are enough makeup. A small book, a paper Eiffel Tower or a cardboard suitcase with French travel labels can be the prop.
9. Olivia The Pig Costume

Olivia suits the child who never stops moving. A comfortable red cotton dress goes over red-and-white striped tights or leggings, with black ballet flats or sneakers and pink felt pig ears on a red headband. The curly tail can be a fabric-covered pipe cleaner, but the ends are sharp wire, so an adult should fold them back and wrap them before covering. Pale pink paint makes a small snout with two darker nostril dots, and the rest of the face stays clean. She's a dramatic little artist, so a cardboard painting palette or a red purse fits her. No mask, no bodysuit and no full-face paint, which is exactly why it lasts a whole school day.
10. Pete The Cat Costume

Pete the Cat is mostly a royal-blue hoodie with blue sweatpants or leggings, a lighter blue felt oval on the chest and a long fabric tail at the waistband. Glue triangle felt ears to a soft headband. The dark-blue nose and short whiskers are optional; I skip them for children with sensitive skin and nobody misses them. The shoes are what matter. Red sneakers are easiest, and if you don't have any, red felt covers held with elastic under the sole will fit over a comfortable pair, though they wear through quickly on playground blacktop. A big yellow felt button on a ribbon or pinned to the hoodie nods to his button story. A cardboard guitar is fun if it's small and the strap is short.
11. Corduroy Bear Costume

Corduroy hangs on one missing button, which is a charming detail to build a whole costume around. A brown long-sleeve shirt and brown pants (or a brown fleece hoodie on a cold day) go under green overalls, with one shoulder strap left undone or fastened with an obviously mismatched button. Round bear ears on a fabric headband and a small brown nose do the rest, and brown sneakers or soft boots keep the colors together. For the famous button, I cut a large white one from foam board and hang it on a short ribbon so it's big enough to read in photos. Skip loose metal buttons with toddlers; they go straight in mouths. Preschoolers do well in this one because it's all familiar clothing.
12. Pippi Longstocking Costume

Pippi's braids are the whole joke, and getting them to stick out sideways is easier than it looks. Braid the hair into two pigtails around a soft, bendable support, such as a few pipe cleaners twisted together and wrapped in yarn, then curve them up. Pad the ends well and keep them short of shoulder width, because in a crowded hallway they sit right at another child's eye level. A colorful patchwork dress or a bright tunic over shorts, two different knee socks or striped tights, and mismatched bold sneakers. Temporary orange hair spray is optional and rubs off onto collars, so I'd only use it with an old top. Dot washable freckles across the nose and cheeks. Add a small fabric monkey on the shoulder with a removable fastener, or let your child carry it, plus a tiny cardboard suitcase.
13. Anne Shirley Costume

Anne Shirley is a quiet costume that older girls who love the books tend to enjoy. Look for a modest long-sleeve dress with a white collar in blue, brown or gray, then add a white pinafore and sturdy brown lace-up boots. Two braids tied with plain ribbon. Red hair color is optional; the braids and freckles tell the story without it. I draw freckles with a soft brown pencil made for sensitive skin, dotted unevenly, since a neat grid of freckles looks painted on. A straw hat with a few faux flowers can hang down her back on a loose ribbon. A fabric-covered notebook or a small basket of silk flowers is the prop. Keep the skirt between knee and calf so stairs aren't a hazard.
14. Ramona Quimby Costume

I recommend Ramona to parents whose child hates dressing up, because it barely feels like a costume. A colorful striped shirt, denim overalls, bright socks and sneakers. Hair stays as it is or goes in low pigtails. No wig, no makeup, maybe a few freckles. The detail fans look for is her letter Q, which she draws to look like a cat, so cut a big cardboard Q, give it little ears and whiskers, and fix it to a notebook, lunch bag or removable badge. A sheet of paper with a deliberately wild drawing makes a good second prop. Every piece goes back into the wardrobe the next day, which makes it about the cheapest book costume you can put together.
15. Junie B. Jones Costume

Junie B. Jones dresses like a kid who picked her own clothes, so let your child do the picking. A bright cardigan, a patterned skirt, colorful leggings and a striped or graphic tee, with white socks and sturdy sneakers. High, slightly uneven pigtails with colorful scrunchies; don't fuss them into symmetry. Round costume glasses help, and I always choose frames with plain clear lenses or none at all, so nobody spends the day looking through cheap tinted plastic. A handwritten name tag reading "Junie B." and a composition notebook covered in stickers and doodles finish it. Check the skirt length by having her sit on the carpet, and loop a soft strap on the glasses for recess.
16. Amelia Bedelia Costume

Amelia Bedelia is a housekeeper's uniform with a sense of humor. A black knee-length dress (or a black shirt with a comfortable skirt) goes under a white apron and a detachable white collar, with black tights and low black shoes or sneakers. Hair goes up in a neat bun or braid under a small white felt cap; I hold the cap with two bobby pins crossed in an X, which grips far better than one. The tray is where the jokes go: a fake sponge cake, artificial flowers, paper cleaning supplies or a feather-free duster that hint at her mix-ups. Keep everything on the tray light and glued down so nothing slides off mid-parade. No real cleaning liquids, and nothing breakable.
17. The Paper Bag Princess Costume

Please don't make this one from a real paper bag. It tears at the armholes within an hour and crackles every time your child moves. A tan T-shirt dress or an oversized brown tunic gives the same look, and you can draw bag seams and a little label on it with washable fabric markers. Brown leggings and tan boots or sneakers go underneath. Hair goes loose and messy, as if a dragon just blew through it. A soft gray eyeshadow smudge on one cheek reads as soot, and I keep it to one small mark so it never looks like a bruise. A gold paper crown in a pocket and a cardboard dragon silhouette with rounded, smoothed edges finish it. It's a lovely pick for a child who wants to be the clever hero rather than the rescued one.
18. The Princess In Black Costume

This one suits the child who wants a princess but hates ruffles. Start with a long-sleeve black dress or a black tunic over leggings, then a light black cape ending above the knees, a bright blue sash and blue gloves if she wants them. A soft black eye mask, a small black crown and a neat ponytail complete her secret identity. I close capes with snaps or hook-and-loop tape at the neck rather than ties, so the cape pulls away if another child grabs it on the climbing frame. Rosy cheeks only. Flat black boots or supportive sneakers. A plush unicorn or a small cardboard monster stands in for battle gear, which most schools won't allow anyway. Check that the mask's eyeholes are wide enough to see the floor.
19. Little Red Riding Hood Costume

Red Riding Hood adapts to almost any weather, which is why I like it for outdoor parades. A white blouse, a red or black knee-length skirt, opaque tights or leggings and brown boots make the base. The cape is the character: bright red, hooded and no longer than the knee. Choose a snap closure over long neck ties every time. On a cold morning a warm cardigan goes under the cape and nobody can tell. Hair can be braided, curled or left natural under the hood, and rosy cheeks are enough. The basket holds fabric bread, faux flowers and a folded checked cloth. No glass jars or heavy food containers, because a dropped jar in a school corridor ends the day early.
20. Goldilocks Costume

Goldilocks needs golden curls and a cottage dress, and you can often get the curls without a wig. Put a blue, yellow or floral dress under a white apron, with white knee socks and flat brown shoes or Mary Janes. Long hair can be set overnight in soft foam rollers or rag curls, then tied back with a ribbon in the morning. For short hair a soft golden wig works only if your child will keep it on; try it at home for an hour first, because wig caps get hot and itchy. Rosy cheeks and a few freckles are all the makeup. The prop is a painted papier-mache bowl labeled "Just Right" with a fabric spoon inside, plus a small teddy bear. No real porridge, nothing hot, nothing that breaks.
21. Dorothy Gale Costume

Blue gingham is the whole clue. Layer a blue checked pinafore over a white puff-sleeve blouse, or use a gingham dress with a built-in white collar if you want one piece. White ankle socks, two low braids tied with blue ribbon, and red shoes. I'd pick red glitter sneakers or flats over costume heels, which pinch and slip on hall floors, and if you're decorating plain sneakers, glue on a panel of sparkle fabric rather than loose glitter. Loose glitter ends up on every desk in the room. A plush dog sits in a light basket lined with blue fabric, and a paper yellow-brick road sign is handy for photos. Keep basket handles smooth and makeup to a little cheek color.
22. Willy Wonka Costume

Wonka depends on the coat. A purple velvet-look jacket goes over a patterned vest, white shirt and colorful bow tie, with black pants and comfortable dress shoes or sneakers. Thrift shops often have velvet blazers that fit an older child once the sleeves are turned back. The top hat has to fit snugly, so I glue a strip of foam inside the band to take up any slack. Hair can stay natural or go under a short curly wig. A short, flexible cane from a decorated cardboard tube and a few oversized sweets cut from foam and colored paper make the props. Leave real candy off the costume; it gets eaten or crushed. A touch of cheek color, nothing dramatic, and it's ready for crowded classrooms and sidewalks.
23. Charlie Bucket Costume

Charlie Bucket is basically ordinary clothes, so it's my go-to for sensory-sensitive children or a costume needed by tomorrow morning. A soft knit sweater or cardigan over a collared shirt, brown or charcoal pants and lace-up shoes. A flat cap, slightly tousled hair and rosy cheeks give him a modest vintage feel. The golden ticket is the costume, so make it properly: metallic cardstock, rounded corners, decorative lettering, and a covering of clear tape so it survives being bent in a pocket. A cardboard chocolate bar is fine as long as you invent your own wrapper rather than copying a real brand. A fabric satchel holds the book and lunch.
24. The BFG Costume

The BFG is about scale, and the ears are what everyone looks at. Use a large cream shirt or tunic, a brown vest, cropped green pants, a wide belt and brown boots or sneakers. Make the ears from lightweight foam covered in skin-tone fabric and glue them to a padded headband, and keep them modest; ears wider than the shoulders catch on doorframes and other kids. Brush the hair back, or use a soft bald cap if your child likes it (many don't, because they get hot). A bit of rosy paint on the nose and cheeks. His dream-blowing trumpet is a long cardboard tube wrapped in gold paper, and the dream jar should be an empty plastic one with a made-up dream name on the label. Check that nothing drags, wobbles or blocks the eyes.
25. The Very Hungry Caterpillar Costume

I make this one for toddlers more than any other on the list, because it's a green sweatsuit with felt on it. Start with a green sweatshirt and leggings or sweatpants, then layer felt circles in a few shades of green down the front and back. Overlapping them slightly hides the gaps when the child bends. The head is a red hood or headband with big felt eyes, a small green nose and two short purple antennae padded at the tips. Face paint isn't needed since the headpiece carries the character. Green sneakers or removable felt shoe panels go on the feet. Make the food from cardboard, an apple, a pear, a strawberry and a leaf, but hand your child just one; a little one given five props will drop four.
26. The Rainbow Fish Costume

Rainbow Fish should shimmer without a tail that trips anyone. A blue long-sleeve top and leggings go under a light tunic covered in overlapping rows of felt scales in blue, purple, green and silver. I'd use only a few reflective silver scales. The story is about one fish's special scales, and a whole tunic of foil looks more disco ball than fish. Sew the scales on if you can, because glued felt peels off a stretchy knit after an hour of wriggling. Soft side fins at the sleeves, a short fabric tail, and a blue headband with felt eyes. A streak of washable blue hair chalk, a little child-safe blue shimmer on the cheeks and blue sneakers. Keep every scale away from the face, hands and knees.
27. The Gruffalo Costume

A brown hoodie is the right base for the Gruffalo because almost all of the character lives on the head. Brown sweatpants and sturdy brown sneakers go below, then soft felt ears, curved felt horns and a tuft of black faux fur on the hood. Purple felt prickles run down the back, and white felt triangles at the cuffs make harmless claws. The tail should finish above the ankle so it doesn't get stepped on. Washable face paint handles the famous details: orange around the eyes, a black nose and a green wart. I keep paint well clear of the lash line and apply it last, after the hoodie is on, so it doesn't smear on the way over the head. Skip a full mask; it narrows a child's view. A fabric mouse is the right companion, and it's a warm costume, so save it for a chilly day.
28. Dog Man Costume

Dog Man is a police uniform with a dog's head, so the base is a blue shirt, blue pants and comfortable black sneakers. A yellow felt badge goes on the chest and a blue fabric belt at the waist. The head is easiest as a blue cap with tan felt ears hanging down the sides; make them floppy, because stiff ears don't read as Dog Man. Pin a soft tan tail to the back of the pants. A small black nose and whisker dots, with the eyes left completely clear. A cardboard notebook labeled as a police report is the safe prop. Toy handcuffs and batons tend to get confiscated in classrooms, so I'd leave them at home. Kids who draw their own comics love making this one themselves.
29. Captain Underpants Costume

Captain Underpants has to be funny without anyone getting sent to the office, so the trick is covering everything. A fitted beige or pale pink long-sleeve top and matching leggings make the cartoon skin layer. Oversized white shorts go over the leggings with a dotted black waistband drawn in fabric marker. Add a short red cape that ends above the knee and closes with hook-and-loop tape. A smooth bald cap works if your child tolerates it; otherwise slick the hair back. Thick cartoon eyebrows in washable paint and nothing else. Beige or white sneakers and a homemade comic book finish it. Do a test run at home, because shorts tend to slide down over leggings, and a safety pin through both layers at the back fixes it.
30. Greg Heffley Costume

This is the last-minute costume. A plain white T-shirt, black shorts or pants, black-and-white sneakers, and a black long-sleeve shirt underneath if it's cold. Greg's face does the work: draw his round cartoon head on white poster board with a thick black marker, cut generous eye openings, and fix it to a headband so it sits up off the face instead of covering it. If your child would rather not wear it, mount it on a stick for photos only. Carry a black-and-white composition journal with doodles on the cover. No makeup or wig. Everything comes off in seconds if the headpiece gets annoying in class.
31. Waldo Costume

Waldo is one of the few costumes here that suits nearly any age, including the parent walking alongside. A red-and-white striped long-sleeve shirt, blue jeans or navy pants, and brown lace-up shoes or sneakers. The hat matters: a striped beanie with a red pom-pom stitched on top. Round black glasses with clear, nonprescription lenses, plus a soft strap at the back for active kids. Hair natural, no makeup. A walking stick from a cardboard tube painted to look like wood, a folded paper map or a small travel satchel. One honest warning: the stripes need to be wide and properly red. Thin or pinkish stripes just look like a sailor shirt, and the point of Waldo is that he can be spotted in any crowd.
32. Harry Potter Costume

Harry Potter is mainly a school uniform plus three props. A white collared shirt under a dark V-neck sweater, black pants or a knee-length skirt with opaque tights, and a long black robe that stops above the ankle. Packaged robes are often cut long, and I hem them up before the day, because a robe stepped on while going downstairs is the trip I worry about most with this one. Add a red-and-gold striped tie or a scarf kept short, and comfortable black shoes. Messy hair, a small lightning mark on the forehead in washable makeup and round glasses with clear lenses. Swap a wooden dowel wand for a rolled paper one with padded ends. A book and a plush white owl are the only extras.
33. Hermione Granger Costume

Hermione wears the same uniform with more purpose: a white collared shirt, gray cardigan, pleated skirt or gray pants, a striped red-and-gold tie, knee socks or opaque tights and supportive black shoes, under a black robe cut short enough to walk in. Her hair is the giveaway. Braid damp hair the night before and brush the braids out in the morning for real volume without heat or a wig. Temporary brown color is optional, and makeup stays natural. The spellbook is a light notebook covered in brown craft paper and lettered by hand, the wand is paper with soft ends, and a small plush orange cat rides in a fabric satchel. I'd fit the bag strap short so it doesn't swing into desks.
34. The Snowy Day Peter Costume

Peter from The Snowy Day is a gift for winter reading events and very small children. A bright red hooded coat, red snow pants or red trousers, warm mittens and neutral snow boots. The hood goes up over natural hair with the face fully visible, and rosy cheeks give that just-came-in-from-the-snow look. Tack a few flat white felt snowflakes to the coat, and hand over a paper snowball or a small cardboard snowman. If the event is indoors, swap the heavy coat for a thin red hoodie, because a toddler in a snowsuit in a heated library gets cranky fast. Nothing trails and nothing covers the face, which is exactly what you want at that age.
35. The Little Prince Costume

For a child, a royal-blue military-style jacket or cardigan with matching blue pants is the most wearable way into the Little Prince. A white shirt goes underneath, with removable gold ribbon at the shoulders and cuffs, a wide yellow fabric belt, and tall black boots or black sneakers. His hair is pale gold and stands up in tufts, so brush your child's hair upward and use a soft blond wig only if they're happy wearing one. Rosy cheeks only. A flexible foam crown, a fabric rose and a cardboard star on a short handle are the props. I tack the ribbon on with a few loose stitches instead of pins, since pins and wriggly children don't mix.
What a Full School Day Asks of a Costume
A parade lasts twenty minutes; the school day around it lasts six hours. That's why I judge a book costume by the boring moments, not the photo.
- Toilet trips. Overalls, one-piece suits and anything with a tail pinned through two layers slow a young child down, and the teacher may not be free to help. Practice once at home.
- Recess and PE. Sneakers win every time. If the character needs special shoes, send them in a bag and swap for the parade.
- Lunch. White aprons, collars and capes collect ketchup. A cape that unsnaps can come off at the table.
- Names on everything. Crowns, baskets, wands and suitcases all look alike at the end of the day, so write a name inside each one.
- School rules. Many schools ban masks, toy weapons or face paint on book day, so check the letter home before you build the prop.
I also tuck a plain T-shirt into the bag. If face paint smears or the costume gets wet at recess, your child can change and still keep the headpiece on.
When Nobody Knows Which Book They Are
Children often love books that other adults haven't read, and it can sting when nobody guesses the character. The easiest fix is to let them carry the book itself, held cover out, as part of the costume. Beyond that, flip through the illustrations together and pick the color and object the illustrator draws on almost every page. Copy those two things clearly and skip the rest. A small paper name badge with the character's name, in your child's own handwriting, also does more than any extra prop.
The Book They Reread Is the Right Costume
None of these need to cost much. A familiar color pair, a headpiece that stays put and one handmade prop tell people who your child is far better than a stiff packaged outfit. Start with clothes your child already likes wearing and add felt, cardboard or fabric details on top. The night before, run a quick check: can they see the floor, manage the stairs, sit on the carpet and use the toilet alone? Then hand the final choice of book to your child. The costume they helped make is the one they'll still have on at home time.
