Review
The hilarious homework diary of Tom Gates charts his progress through the trials and tribulations of school and home life, including a disastrous camping trip, his vexed relationship with nosey teacher Mr Fullerman and that perennial domestic trial - parents’ evening. Luckily, Tom’s appetite for humour means he can take such trials in his stride and mine them for comic potential. They also inspire some brilliant cartoons for the reader to enjoy.
Tom scribbles the world from his point of view, each page is an explosion of hand-written rants, funny stories and dynamic cartoons. 'All I want to do is get tickets to see the best band ever, DUDE3, when they come to town. It’s not easy when I’m up against Delia, my weirdo big sister, and all my plans seem to get me into MAJOR TROUBLE…' This book oozes personality and with so much going on it promises to maintain the attention of young readers for hours at a time.

I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to people who like funny books and doodling. My favourite part was when his best mate's dog ate his tickets . Now that was funny. I would recommend it to 6 to 12 year olds .

I really enjoyed reading Tom Gates and it brought me to becoming a really big Tom Gates fan.!I think it's a really funny book and my favourite part is when Tom accidentally says,''big beady eyes!"I would recommend it to anyone who likes comedy books.I think the fact that it is a diary makes it feel like someone is actually doing all these things and writing them down.

This is about a boy who loves chocolate wafers and dude three but when it comes to Marcus, things can get a little out of hand.
