The fifth book in the bestselling series from the brilliantly talented Liz Pichon. Exciting News! Mr Fullerman announces that class 5F are going on an ’Activity Break’! Which should be fun. As long as I don’t get stuck in a group with anyone who snores or worse still with . . . . . . Marcus Meldrew. Delia is already threatening to paint my room funny colours while I’m away. Which is annoying. I just hope the only surprise I have when I get home is the new pet that I hear Mum and Dad talking about. Because I’ve always wanted a pet!   ABOUT THE SERIES: Written in diary form Full of Tom’s doodles and pictures & his amazing sense of humour The Brilliant World of Tom Gates, was the winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize! Perfect gifts for boys & girls who love to laugh themselves silly The first series of The Brilliant World of Tom Gates won the Scottish BAFTA for Entertainment! Love Tom Gates? Don’t miss Liz Pichon’s spectacular Shoe Wars, a laugh-out-loud, gadget-packed adventure!

I like that the character likes drawing, the same as me. He has an ordinary life and is really funny. This book is about a residential trip and I've just been on one with school. My favourite character is Tom.

This book is fictional and my favourite character in the story is Tom Gates because he is cool and his doodles are awesome and brilliant. It is also because he is very funny like myself. I would recommend it to someone else as it would be a laugh-out-loud book to anyone who reads it. It also has instructions for doodling at the end of the book which are fascinating.

Tom had lost his letter for an activity trip so he thinks he can't go. Mr fuller man is very cross about it but tom still gets to go. My favourite character was Amy (Tom's class mate). I would recommend it to Tom gate lovers
