Each book follows Tom navigating the small dramas of school and home life with irrepressible optimism, whether filling an empty half-term with homemade crafts, worrying his way onto the school achievement chart before a big trip, or getting tangled in short, ridiculous misadventures with sister Delia, best friend Derek, and teacher Mr Fullerman. The books lean into everyday chaos rather than fantasy, which is why they resonate with young readers: the stakes feel real, even as situations spiral into the absurd. Pichon's hand-lettered text and doodled asides make every spread feel like flipping through a friend's own notebook. Themes of friendship, sibling rivalry, and turning boredom into opportunity tie the stories into one cohesive reading experience for fans old and new.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive complete Tom Gates paperbacks in one convenient, gift-ready set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoodle-filled, diary-style format that appeals to reluctant and enthusiastic readers alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort, punchy chapters perfect for independent reading or bedtime read-alouds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds reading confidence through humor, relatable situations, and visual storytelling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for classroom libraries, sibling hand-me-downs, or a home reading collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA fun, low-pressure entry point into chapter books for kids aged 8-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTom Gates: Spectacular School Trip (Really!) — Tom's spot on the coveted school trip is at risk unless he can stay off the dreaded achievement chart.\u003cbr\u003e\nTom Gates: Mega Make and Do and Stories Too! — With half-term suddenly empty of plans, Tom fills the days with homemade crafts, doodles, and inventive games.\u003cbr\u003e\nTom Gates: Ten Tremendous Tales — A fully illustrated collection of ten short, laugh-out-loud stories starring Tom, his friends, family, and foes.\u003cbr\u003e\nTom Gates: Random Acts of Fun — Tom dives into a string of spontaneous, silly schemes to keep every day interesting.\u003cbr\u003e\nTom Gates: Happy to Help (Eventually) — Tom discovers that good deeds don't always go as planned, with predictably funny results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLiz Pichon is the author and illustrator behind the bestselling Tom Gates series, known for its playful doodles and diary-style humor.

Spectacular School Trip (Really.) follows Tom as he tries to avoid a bad report card and a meddling classmate before the school trip he's been counting down to.

Across these five titles, readers follow Tom through late homework disasters, disastrous school trips, sibling squabbles with his older sister Delia, and his ongoing quest to impress his best friend Derek and, occasionally, his crush Amy Porter. The diary format keeps entries short and punchy, mixing narration with hand-lettered captions, sketches, and comic asides that make the pages feel handmade and personal. Liz Pichon's illustration-heavy approach means even reluctant readers can follow the story visually, while the sharp, observational humor keeps confident readers entertained too. The first book in this collection, The Brilliant World of Tom Gates, won the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, recognizing the series' distinctive blend of comedy and heart. Themes of family, friendship, and creativity run throughout, as Tom constantly turns ordinary school and home moments into elaborate stories and inventions. The set reads well in order, since running jokes and characters build across books, but each title also stands alone as a complete, laugh-out-loud adventure. Parents and teachers often praise the series for turning reluctant readers into eager ones, thanks to its visual storytelling and forgiving, bite-sized chapters that never feel like a chore to finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive complete Tom Gates paperbacks in one ready-to-gift bundle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoodle-filled diary format welcomes emerging and reluctant readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes The Brilliant World of Tom Gates, winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort, punchy chapters keep pacing brisk and pages turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for classroom libraries and independent reading time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperbacks, perfect for birthdays or back-to-school gifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Brilliant World of Tom Gates — Introduces Tom's excuse-making genius and doodle-packed notebook amid school and camping mishaps.\u003cbr\u003e\nExcellent Excuses (And Other Good Stuff) — Tom cooks up fresh homework alibis while juggling friendships and family chaos at home.\u003cbr\u003e\nEverything's Amazing (sort of) — School discos and talent-show plans crowd Tom's world as his doodles and daydreams multiply.\u003cbr\u003e\nGenius Ideas (Mostly) — Tom's inventive streak takes center stage as his big plans don't always go quite as hoped.\u003cbr\u003e\nTom Gates Is Absolutely Fantastic (At Some Things) — Tom weighs his talents against his mishaps in a diary of typical Tom Gates highs and lows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLiz Pichon is a British author and illustrator who studied graphic design at Camberwell School of Art before creating the bestselling Tom Gates series.

Gathering ten books that follow the cheeky schoolboy through diary entries, sketches, and everyday mishaps, this set captures the humor and heart that have made the series a favorite with young readers. Blending laugh-out-loud comedy with genuine warmth about friendship and family, Tom Gates books are especially loved by reluctant readers thanks to handwritten-style text and expressive cartoons.

Told in a first-person, handwritten diary style, each book is packed with doodles, comic asides, and running jokes that make even reluctant readers want to turn the page. Tom is an ordinary kid with an extraordinary imagination, forever dodging homework, dreaming up excuses, and hatching plans that rarely go the way he expects. Along the way, readers meet his long-suffering teacher Mr. Fullerton, his exasperating older sister Delia, his best friend Derek, and the rest of the DOGZOMBIES band as they navigate school concerts, family holidays, and the everyday ups and downs of growing up. Liz Pichon's illustrated style gives every page the feel of flipping through a real notebook, with sketches, speech bubbles, and scribbled notes woven directly into the story rather than sitting apart from it. Humor stays at the center throughout, but the books also touch on real, relatable themes: standing up for yourself, coping with embarrassment, celebrating small wins, and figuring out who your real friends are. Because each title works as a stand-alone read while still building a bigger picture of Tom's world, the collection suits both cover-to-cover reading and dipping in and out. It's an ideal introduction to longer chapter books for children moving on from early readers, offering the reassurance of familiar characters alongside fresh jokes and mini-mysteries in every installment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete 10-book paperback set covering the full Tom Gates story arc from book one to book ten\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHilarious diary-style format with hand-drawn doodles that hooks reluctant readers and reading beginners alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort chapters and high-interest humor make it easy to build reading confidence and stamina\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelatable themes of friendship, family, and creativity alongside laugh-out-loud school mishaps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat value bundle for building a home library or refreshing a classroom reading corner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect gift for birthdays, holidays, or back-to-school reading for kids who love funny chapter books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Brilliant World of Tom Gates — The series opener introduces Tom's diary-style narration, his doodles, and his knack for creative excuses for late homework.\u003cbr\u003e\nExcellent Excuses (and Other Good Stuff) — Tom fills a two-week school break with band practice, sisterly pranks, and inventive schemes that inevitably go sideways.\u003cbr\u003e\nEverything's Amazing (Sort Of) — Tom juggles a class trip, new crushes, and family antics while trying to keep his doodled notebook one step ahead of trouble.\u003cbr\u003e\nGenius Ideas (Mostly) — Big dreams take over as Tom cooks up grand plans for DOGZOMBIES and the school talent show, with predictably chaotic results.\u003cbr\u003e\nTom Gates Is Absolutely Fantastic (at Some Things) — Tom tackles a school project and a family caravan holiday, discovering he's better at some things than others.\u003cbr\u003e\nExtra Special Treats — A trip to visit Grandma and Grandad brings extra pocket money, secret snacks, and plenty of sibling squabbles with Delia.\u003cbr\u003e\nA Tiny Bit Lucky — Tom hopes for a little good fortune as birthdays, band gigs, and school projects collide in one busy stretch.\u003cbr\u003e\nYes!

Told through Tom's hilarious sketchbook-style diary, each story mixes handwritten-style text, comic doodles, and laugh-out-loud school and family mishaps. Kids follow Tom through excuses for late homework, band practice dreams, sibling rivalry with his sister Delia, and everyday classroom chaos. The doodle-filled pages make longer chapters feel approachable, helping reluctant and confident readers alike stick with a story. It's a fantastic bundle for birthdays, holiday gifts, classroom libraries, and summer reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLiz Pichon's Tom Gates books are told in a distinctive diary-and-doodle format, blending casual first-person narration with cartoon illustrations, scribbled margin notes, and comic-strip panels that spill across almost every page. This 15-book set gathers the character's earliest and most formative adventures, following Tom Gates as an ordinary school kid navigating homework excuses, art class disasters, music dreams with his band Dude3, and the daily push-and-pull with his older sister Delia. Across the collection, Tom deals with grumpy teacher Mr. Fullerman, tries to impress his crush Amy Porter, dodges classroom troublemaker Marcus Meldrew, and finds himself in one comic mishap after another, whether it's a school trip, a talent show, or a family camping holiday. What makes the series so appealing to young readers is its visual energy: doodled margins, exaggerated handwriting, and running jokes make each book feel like flipping through a friend's messy, hilarious notebook rather than reading a traditional novel. The humor stays gentle and relatable, focusing on the small, real dramas of growing up: forgotten homework, sibling squabbles, awkward crushes, and staying organized. Because the format mixes short bursts of text with visual gags, the books work well for reluctant readers who might feel intimidated by denser chapter books, while still offering enough wit to keep confident readers engaged through all fifteen installments. Fans of humorous, illustrated middle-grade series often move seamlessly into Tom Gates after outgrowing early readers, making this set a natural next step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete 15-book paperback set covering the first fifteen Tom Gates adventures in one collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiary-style doodles and comic panels make longer books feel fast and fun to read\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for reluctant readers ages 9-12 (Grades 4-7) thanks to short bursts of text and visual humor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelatable school and family storylines about friendship, excuses, band practice, and sibling rivalry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect gift set for birthdays, holidays, back-to-school, and summer reading challenges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA ready-made classroom or home library addition for fans of funny, illustrated chapter books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Brilliant World of Tom Gates — Introduces Tom Gates, a doodle-loving schoolboy whose diary-style sketchbook turns everyday excuses and mishaps into comic gold.\u003cbr\u003e\nExcellent Excuses (And Other Good Stuff) — Tom dreams up increasingly elaborate excuses for late homework while doodling his way through classroom antics.\u003cbr\u003e\nEverything's Amazing (Sort Of) — Tom's sketchbook fills up with plans and doodles as another round of school-life chaos unfolds.\u003cbr\u003e\nGenius Ideas (Mostly) — Tom cooks up a string of creative schemes and shortcuts that rarely go quite according to plan.\u003cbr\u003e\nAbsolutely Fantastic (At Some Things) — Tom weighs his talents in art and music against his knack for getting into funny scrapes.\u003cbr\u003e\nExtra Special Treats (...

Perfect for reluctant readers and Tom Gates superfans alike, this paperback set delivers seven complete stories packed with sketches, lists, and comic asides that make reading feel like flipping through a friend's hilarious notebook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAcross these seven installments, author-illustrator Liz Pichon expands the world of Tom Gates with the same blend of comic-strip doodles, laugh-out-loud captions, and spot-on middle-grade humor that made the series a favorite with young readers. Tom is still the same easily distracted, wildly imaginative schoolboy, forever dodging homework, dreaming up band names, and doodling his way through class, but this run of books pushes his world wider. Family features heavily across these titles, with road trips, relatives, and the occasional furry surprise, alongside Tom's ongoing rivalry with his older sister and his loyal friendship with his best mate. School life supplies plenty of material too, from disastrous class trips to unexpected monster scares and inspired, if chaotic, craft projects. Pichon's format never changes: short chapters, hand-lettered captions, and doodle-covered margins that turn every page into something to look at as much as read, which is part of why the series appeals so strongly to kids who find traditional chapter books intimidating. Humor stays gentle and observational rather than mean-spirited, built from exaggeration, misunderstandings, and Tom's stubborn optimism no matter how a plan falls apart. Threaded through the laughs are quieter themes of loyalty, creativity, and paying attention to the people and pets around you. Fans of the earlier Tom Gates books will recognize the cast and comic rhythm, while newcomers can pick up any title here and quickly get up to speed on Tom's world, making this whole set an easy, rewarding read for reluctant and enthusiastic readers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete run of seven Tom Gates paperbacks in one set, ready for gifting or a classroom library.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiz Pichon's signature doodle-and-diary format makes long chapter books feel approachable for reluctant readers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLaugh-out-loud, kid-tested humor about school, family, friendship, and creative chaos.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback copies, perfect for birthdays, holidays, or back-to-school reading lists.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy to read in any order, so kids can jump straight to their favorite-sounding title.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA go-to pick for fans of illustrated humor chapter books for middle-grade readers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDogZombies Rule (for Now) — Tom juggles a wobbly family tree project, a mysterious squeak in his shoe, and his usual doodle-fueled distractions.\u003cbr\u003e\nFamily, Friends and Furry Creatures — Relatives, pals, and a menagerie of pets crowd into Tom's world as loyalties and rivalries get put to the test.\u003cbr\u003e\nEpic Adventure (Kind of) — A big family outing promises epic thrills, though Tom's version of \"epic\" doesn't always match everyone else's expectations.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiscuits, Bands and Very Big Plans — Tom's band dreams collide with snack cravings and overly ambitious scheming, in classic Tom Gates fashion.\u003cbr\u003e\nWhat Monster? — A spooky rumor takes hold at school, and Tom can't resist doodling and investigating his own monster theories.\u003cbr\u003e\nMega Make and Do (and Stories Too!) — Packed with craft ideas and short stories, this entry leans into Tom's love of making things with his own two hands.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpectacular School Trip (Really.) — A class trip goes sideways in the most Tom Gates way possible, mixing mishaps with moments of surprising fun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLiz Pichon is a British author-illustrator best known for creating the Tom Gates series, which blends comic-style doodles with diary-format storytelling to capture the everyday chaos of school and family life.
