Tom Gates is the master of excuses for late homework: dog attacks; spilt water; and, lightning. Tom's exercise book is full of his doodles, cartoons and thoughts, as well as comments from his long-suffering teacher, Mr Fullerton. After gaining five merits for his 'Camping Sucks' holiday story, Tom's work starts to go downhill - which is a pity, as he's desperate to impress Amy Porter, who sits next to him...

Smart, novel and laugh-out-loud funny, boys and girls aged 7+ are bound to enjoy this riotous new illustrated series from award-winning author and illustrator Liz Pichon.
