Good to join Rupert Grint on the audiobook again, and this saw us through a few school runs, the 5 year old was keeping up as easily as the 11 year old, and there's nothing unsuitable in these books either (if you don't mind repeated refrains of 'Delia's a Weirdo' at random times through the day).

I have a soft spot for this series, so love it when a new book comes out. This one was hilarious. Kids eating bowls full of sugar, caramel doughnuts, cool grandparents and a whole heap of illustrations to boot!” Rania T. My grandson loved it . Had previously bought all the Tom Gates books for my 7 year old grandson and from being a reluctant reader he absolutely loved them., so when “Random Acts of Fun” came out it was a no-brainer.

Tom Gates: Excellent Excuses (And Other Good Stuff)

Tom este la fel de năzdrăvan și sturlubatic doar că parcă i-a lipsit sarea și piperul ca să ajungă să-l notez cu 4 sau 5 stele. Nu știu ce s-a întâmplat exact sincer să vă spun mai ales că volumul de față este al doilea din serie chiar dacă a apărut al treilea în românește și în mod normal trebuia să fie mai fain decât cel care-l urmează că încă e proaspăt autorul. Din păcate Pichon parcă s-a rupt, parcă s-a împiedicat de personaj, parcă nu l-a mai iubit atât de tare pe Tom și parcă povestea pe care a născocit-o a fost puțin forțată. And alright, he's not the worst - he pranks his sister, he doesn't do his homework. But he's a good kid really, Tom Gates. He's in a band, has friends and crushes, fakes parent letters. All in all - a kid that other kids enjoy reading about and see themselves in. In this second book, the narrative continues on really, into a school holiday in which Tom determines he WILL do his homework... but later.

Aged around 10 years old, Tom is the younger of the two children of Frank and Rita Gates, and the younger brother of Delia. [4] He attends Oakfield Primary School where he is in Mr Fullerman's Class 5F, under headmaster Mr Keen. Children in his class include Marcus Meldrew (who sits next to and consistently annoys Tom in class), and Amy Porter (who also sits next to Tom, but whom Tom hopes to impress). Also in his year at Oakfield is his best friend Derek Fingle, who also lives next door to him. Tom has a second neighbour, June Jones, that annoys Tom and dislikes his band. In 2020, Sky Kids announced that it was making The Brilliant World of Tom Gates to be available on Sky's on demand service Sky Kids in the UK and Ireland. [7] The first series, consisting of 20 animated episodes, was released in early 2021, featuring Catherine Tate as both Rita Gates and Granny Mavis, Mark Bonnar as Mr Fullerman, and Logan Matthews as Tom Gates. [8] [9] Creator Liz Pichon also appears in the episodes in a live-action segment in which she gives ideas for creating artwork inspired by the series. [10] The second series was released in 2022. The series also has the Halloween and Christmas specials.

Cine nu știe că Tom Gates e noul meu puști favorit, imediat după Nate? De data asta, din păcate, Pichon nu m-a făcut să râd așa cum a făcut-o în celelalte două romane traduse deja de editura Arthur. I'd like to see more from Delia the older sister in later episodes I think, see their relationship in a little more detail.
