Tom Gates #5: Tom Gates is Absolutely Fantastic (at Some Things)

 

The fifth book in the bestselling  Tom Gates series of books from the brilliantly talented Liz Pichon.

Exciting News!

Mr Fullerman announces that class 5F are going on an ‘Activity Break’!

Which should be fun.

As long as I don’t get stuck in a group with anyone who snores or worse still with . . .

. . . Marcus Meldrew.

Delia is already threatening to paint my room funny colours while I’m away.

Which is annoying.

I just hope the only surprise I have when I get home is the new pet that I hear Mum and Dad talking about.

Because I’ve always wanted a pet!
