Tom Gates: Tom Gates:Yes! No. (Maybe...)

My son and I adore all of the Tom Gates books by Liz Pichon.

I love my book it was delivered with care on time absolutely 💯 happy

Great book for my 9yo.

I would 100% recommend this book! I liked everything thing about it and it was over all a awesome book.

My son who is 8 and my daughter who is 12 still love the Tom Gates series, and demand the next book as soon as it comes out. I read them too because as a school librarian you know the children will be impressed if you're up to speed with the latest Tom Gates happenings. Tom Gates is pretty much universally popular. I haven't met a single child yet who didn't love him.This is pretty much the same as all the other books that went before. There are lots of doodles, lots of things you can do, lots of stuff you can identify with, lots of school/family stuff and very little actual plot. Tom is involved with Business day at school and at home his mum has decided they must clear out the house and make some money at a car boot sale. Tom's mum's birthday is looming and his dad needs to pull something spectacular out of the bag to keep her happy. Will he do it?Funny, non-challenging, perfect for transitional readers and a must have for nearly all children.

This is a great book for reluctant readers and I always have a couple of these books around in tutor time for the students who 'forget' to bring a reading book to tutor time. Several students have enjoyed them that they have gone on to read more books in the series. My 9 year old son isn't a reluctant reader, he devours books at a ridiculous rate, but he finds these books really fun too. It's great to find a book that will cross over the literacy levels and give kids books to bond over. I can't praise these books highly enough - if you like the other books in the series you'll love this one, and if you haven't read one yet - give it a go, you won't be disappointed. It doesn't really matter what order you read them in but if you haven't already started reading the series - the order they were published is:The Brilliant World of Tom GatesExcellent Excuses (And Other Good Stuff)Everything's Amazing (sort of)Genius Ideas (Mostly)Tom Gates is Absolutely Fantastic (at some things)Best Book Day Ever! (so far)Extra Special Treats (not)A Tiny Bit LuckyYes! No (Maybe...)Top of the Class (Nearly)Tom Gates: Super Good Skills (Almost...)DogZombies Rule (for Now)

I like how there are different characters in the book but I didn't like how there are no mazes in the book and code. Can you add some please?
