Fart and Burp are the perfect Book Week costumes for 2023

Get Book Week-ready with Zoë Foster Blake's beloved Fart and Burp characters.

Book Week is almost here, and that means it’s the perfect time to dress up like a burp or fart!

Whoosh! Weeeee! In no time at all, you’ll be zooming around school saving people from bullies and other trouble with our smelly friends, Fart and Burp. Wear all-brown or all-purple and put on a blue or red cape! Go all out by making something puffy, or putting a face on it, like these legends featured on Zoë Foster Blake’s Instagram.
