Doodling on his plaster cast helps to pass the time, along with visits from family (with treats), friends and even Rooster managing to sneak in.

From the winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, the Best Book for Younger Readers - Red House Children's Book Award, the Waterstones Children's Book Prize 5 - 12 year-olds and the Blue Peter Best Story Book Award 2013. This is a used book - there is no escaping the fact it has been read by someone else and it will show signs of wear and previous use. Crammed with scribbles, doodles, stories and sniggers, this hysterical journal brings you more manic mayhem from the crazy world of Tom Gates.It reminded me of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and that's the main reason I went ahead and read it, but it didn't hit the mark.

Tom este la fel de năzdrăvan și sturlubatic doar că parcă i-a lipsit sarea și piperul ca să ajungă să-l notez cu 4 sau 5 stele.

He and his best mate, Derek, have some grand plans: doing nothing; having sleepovers; practicing being rock stars in their band, Dogzombies; annoying Tom's snarky older sister, Delia; and watching lots of television. Hilariously unreflective and self-absorbed, Tom aspires to avoid schoolwork at all costs and become a rock star, even though he hasn't mastered the music part and his band lacks a drummer. I’m TRYING to get voted onto the school council as well – but thanks to the ABOVE list it’s not exactly going to plan.

He can forget all about lessons and the irritating Marcus Meldrew and save his energy for good stuff! Tom Gates, the main character, enjoys doodling, annoying his older sister, playing in his band, and eating wafer cookies.

K., The Brilliant World of Tom Gates won several prestigious awards, including the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, the Waterstone’s Children’s Book Prize, and the Blue Peter Book Award.
