British Literature Characters

[professorphlash]

Hey Guys,

My daughter, a senior in high school, is invited to a party for her AP 
English class at the teacher's home.  The students are supposed to 
dress as a character from British literature.  At once she told her 
teacher that she could go as someone from Harry Potter.  The teacher 
said, "Yes, you coouuld."  Then my daughter decided the teacher was 
thinking of something a little more "classic."  Now she is having a 
hard time selecting the character.  She has a few in mind, but is 
looking for more ideas.  How about it?  Who are your favorite 
characters? Which ones would make interesting costumes?  We would love 
your input.
