Reviews

I loved this Tom gates book
Professor Jewel Supermarket 01.09.2024

I have really enjoyed reading this book because there were lots of unexpected twists and turns and I found it very funny and entertaining. Marcus was always getting Tom into lots of trouble, my favourite bit is when Tom's family and friends draw on the wrong doodle wall and they are worried they will get into trouble for it but actually Tom's drawing becomes the packaging of his favourite chocolate biscuit!

Love the book would read again Very funny and loads of humor One thing I didn’t like was probably the art style but other than that great book

The author of this book (Liz Pichon) has made a really fun, silly and intresting bestselling book for children young and old, all around the planet. Her book has been translated into 45 languages. Wonderful book.

It’s a funny book because Tom sat on his family’ hat that was for his grandparents wedding again

I found this book really funny. The reason I chose this book is because I have a Tom Gates book at home and was really funny. This book was fiction and my favourite character in this book was Tom. I would recommend this to someone else.

I loved this book because it has lots of meters in it to describe how people act, like angry or happy. The angrier they are the higher the meter goes.

I like Tom Gates as I like his creative style of writing, and Liz makes the stories really funny

I like that they did something wrong but they found out they could fix the problem easily. And because they got something wrong, Tom got famous.

I liked how Tom thought that he was going to get in trouble but instead it turned out well.
Constable Sunny Teacup 28.07.2022

I thought the book was spectacular(as it says on the front of the book) because it had lots of detailed pictures and lots of amazing hand full of word in this book. It was fiction and my favourite character is Tom Gates(the main character) because he likes annoying his sister Delia who's never happy for once and going to the Doodle Wall in town. I definitely would recommend this interesting book to someone else who is a fan of Tom Gates or you don't have to be a fan of Tom Gates to like it.

I liked the twist in the story - I wasn’t expecting the woman who saw Tom drawing on the wall to be the owner of the biscuit factory. When he admitted to it being him I thought he was going to be in trouble rather than being asked to design the packaging and poster for the biscuit being released.
Prince Burp Haystack 06.07.2021

Very fun and some twists at the end! Everyone should read this.
DJ Gator Peanut-butter 26.05.2021

It was funny when Tom’s dad borrowed a cafe truck as a car! It’s weird when Tom’s grandparents we’re getting married again! It’s nice when Miss wafers used Tom’s doodles on biscuit posters! It was funny when Dogzombies ( a band Tom’s in ) wore disguises so nobody would recognise them! It was crazy when Tom and his friends drew on the wrong wall! I recommend someone who likes school to read this book!

So funny again! I have now read all 18 Tom Gates books, I just love them so much!
