- Book Synopsis
-
The top-of-the-class, extra special 21st book from multi-million copy selling author and illustrator Liz Pichon.
A feel-good, laugh-out-loud, packed-with-pictures Tom Gates story!
The latest Tom Gates bestseller from multi-million selling writer and illustrator Liz Pichon, now in paperback.
Q: Who wants their FIVE STAR funny story included in Oakfield School's story book?
A: EVERYONE!
But what will Tom write about?
Inspiration strikes when he looks at his excellent collection of ODD OBJECTS and remembers the funny stories behind each one.
Starting with Great Great Aunt Aggie's fake bird hat, the weird stone with a hole and his very special doodle pen.
Marcus wants to write about Tom (which is annoying), Amy's got a funny poem and Norman's story is all about... cheese.
But Mr Fullerman can only choose the FIVE STAR STORIES - will Tom get his work in on time?
And will Granddad read Tom's story and find out what REALLY happened to Aunt Aggie's hat?
(Spoiler alert - probably)
Written in diary form
Every page STUFFED full of laughs, stories, doodles and creative FUN
