Sometimes making up my mind isn't easy to do.


Especially when my grumpy sister Delia is LOOMING over me.



Mum's on a mission to TIDY UP the whole house.


She says if I can't decide what to get rid of, she'll do it
for me.


Which would be a DISASTER!
Lucky for me, The FOSSILS come to my rescue (more than once!)

Book 9

Top of the Class (Nearly)

by Liz Pichon

Published 8 October 2015
From the winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, the Best Book for
Younger Readers - Red House Children's Book Award, the Waterstones
Children's Book Prize 5 - 12 year-olds and the Blue Peter Best
Story Book Award 2013, comes the ninth amazing instalment of this
brilliant series!


TIPS FOR BEING TOP OF THE CLASS
(Sadly...I did NONE of these things.)
1. Stay awake in lessons (it helps.)
2. Don't draw HILARIOUS pictures of your teachers.
3. AVOID the class bully to stay out of trouble.
4. Don't let Mum and Dad write ANYTHING in your school planner.
5. Don't let your grumpy sister Delia BOSS you around. (Technically
not a school issue - but still important.)

I'm TRYING to get voted onto the school council as well - but thanks
to the ABOVE list it's not exactly going to plan.

Book 10

Look out! Tom, Delia and the whole Gates family are going on holiday.
How will Tom manage to keep himself busy on the most boring
campsite ever? By doodling, of course!

An exciting new story - with doodle your own elements! - from award-winning

DogZombies Rule (For now)

by Liz Pichon

Published 6 October 2016
Here's my EXCELLENT PLAN to make DogZombies the BEST band in the
WHOLE WIDE WORLD!
How hard can it be?
(Very.)
Right now I'm going to:
1. Write more songs. (Not about teachers.)
2. Make a SPECTACULAR music video. (Easy.)
3. Get some sleep. (Tricky when you're being kept awake by LOUD NOISES.)

4. Annoy Delia. (Nothing to do with DOGZOMBIES but always FUN.)

Book 12

In the next hilarious illustrated instalment of Tom Gates, Mr Fullerman
has a class assignment: a family tree! Tom's ready to learn
all about the Gates family, his friends and a furry creature (or
two!).

But just what *is* that squeaking sound coming from Tom's shoes?
