Tom Gates is Absolutely Fantastic (At Some Things)
by Liz Pichon (Author)
The fifth crazy adventure in Tom Gates' homework diary reads thusly:
"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!"
And so on and so forth through another series of hilarious mishaps...
