Best Book Day Ever (So Far)
Brilliant World of Tom Gates Series
It's Book Week in Oakfield school and everyone is very excited – including all the teachers, who are making costumes of their own! Mr Keen says there's an excellent prize on offer for the best costumes worn on Book Day. So suddenly making a good costume is vitally important, but tricky, and Delia's not much help (as usual). Then Marcus decides that he is a super hero and can't understand why 'Super Marcus' isn't the best name...
This hilarious companion novella to The Brilliant World of Tom Gates was released in honour of World Book Day 2013.

Tom Gates is the master of excuses for late homework: dog attacks; spilt water; and, lightning.
Written in diary form, Tom's exercise book is full of his doodles, cartoons, thoughts— and his amazing sense of humour! (As well as comments from his long-suffering teacher, Mr Fullerton.)
Smart, novel and laugh-out-loud funny, boys and girls aged 8+ are bound to enjoy this riotous illustrated series from award-winning author and illustrator, Liz Pichon.
