Tom Gates #9: Top of the Class

Tom Gates Is Nearly at the Top — Nearly!

Tom Gates is back, and this time he's got his eye on the prize — well, sort of. In Tom Gates #9: Top of the Class (Nearly), Tom is determined to impress his teachers, avoid Marcus Meldrew, and maybe — just maybe — get to the top of the class. But with doodles to draw, biscuits to eat, and his family causing chaos at every turn, staying focused has never been harder.

Liz Pichon's brilliantly funny, doodle-filled series continues to delight young readers with Tom's irresistible mix of humour, heart, and hopeless good intentions. A Roald Dahl Funny Prize winner and a firm favourite in classrooms and bedrooms across the world.
