Tom Gates 4: Genius Ideas

Dreams of rock stardom take the edge off embarrassing family activities in Tom’s fourth “homework diary” crammed with doodles and stories.

After receiving the shock of a lifetime — seeing his big sister, Delia, without her sunglasses on — Tom is trying to gear himself up for sports day at school. It does not help that his dad is training for the parents’ race on that day — and plans to wear bizarre cycling shorts! Meanwhile, Tom’s band, DogZombies, is supposed to play in the school talent show, meaning they’d better start practicing — a lot. It might all be worth it, though, if the absolutely brilliant band DUDE3 appears as special guests!

Seeing Delia without her sunglasses on is a BIG shock for Tom, but that’s nothing compared with the surprise that Dad has in store with his new-found fitness regime! He says he’s going to compete at Tom’s Sports Day. Can you even imagine the horrendous shame that will bring? Meanwhile Tom, Derek and Norman are busy with a training regime of their own – practising with Dogzombies to make sure they’re ready for the school talent show. The highs and lows of Tom’s zany life are funnier and more extreme than ever in this fourth wicked diary from a prize-winning series!
