Top of the Class (Nearly): 9 (Tom Gates)

Product Information

But only ONE thing will cheer Tom up: a caramel doughnut from the new bakery… trouble is, every other kid in town keeps getting there before him! The 19th book in the series is Tom Gates: Random Acts of Fun, following an injured Tom as he laments on all the most outrageously fun things he did before his foot was in a cast, and plotting many more! His grandparents are Frank's parents Granny Mavis And Granddad Bob that Tom refers to as "The Fossils", while Rita's parents are known as "The Wrinklies". I genuinely loved Top of the Class (Nearly) and I can’t believe this is my first foray into Tom Gates’ world because it was fantastic and I didn’t want it to end! It’s hard for Tom to concentrate on what he’s saying because his eyebrows are so bushy they look like two CATERPILLARS walking across his face.
