Såld i över 200 000 exemplar i England och översatt till 31 språk! Låt oss presentera Tom Gates, en ny komisk röst i barnboksvärlden! Det bästa Tom vet är att rita, äta kolarån och reta sin storasyster Delia. Och så gillar han bästisen Derek och DUDE3 (världens bästa popgrupp). Vad han inte gillar: läxor, idiot-Marcus, fåniga körövningar, fossilernas bananpizza, pappas urlöjliga t-shirts och glupska hundvalpar. (Du kommer att förstå varför när du läser boken.) Tom Gates fantastiska värld är den första boken om Tom Gates, och den perfekta läsningen för alla som gillar lättlästa och roliga böcker, fullproppade med kul bilder och galna upptåg. I England har böckerna i serien sålt i nästan en miljon exemplar! (9-12 år) "kul, fartfullt och synnerligen lätt- och snabbläst" Bibliotekstjänst

Tom Gates är tillbaka i en ny lättläst och rikligt illustrerad bok, full med galna upptåg och plågsamma pinsamheter."Boken blev bara bättre ju mer man läste! Den liknar på många sätt den populära bokserien Dagbok för alla mina fans, men den är mycket bättre." /Sebastian 11 år, Kamratposten Det bästa Tom vet är fortfarande att rita, äta kolarån och reta sin storasyster Delia. Och så gillar han bästisen Derek och att öva med sitt band, The DOGZOMBIES. På det hela taget är Tom ganska nöjd med sin tillvaro. Om det inte vore för de där läxorna som alltid glöms bort (vilket gör hans magister Fullerman en smula utmattad) och att rektorn har fått för sig att Tom och Derek ska vara med i skolorkestern (och spela på instrument av återvunna gummisnoddar). Så för att komma ur dessa, och andra knipor, behöver han en stor portion fantasi och en uppsättning av sina allra bästa ursäkter. LIZ PICHON är en engelsk författare och illustratör. Hon har skrivit åtta böcker om Tom Gates, och vunnit en rad priser för sin bokserie. Bland andra Roald Dahl Funny Prize, Waterstone's Children's Book Prize och Blue Peter Book Award. Böckerna om Tom Gates är sålda i över en miljon ex i England.
