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 and best-selling author Liz Pichon.
When my teacher, Mr Fullerman, doesn't have his BEADY EYES on me, I like to draw pictures and write stories about stuff, like when we had the worst holiday ever (camping sucks), and when my parents came to school for parents' evening (groan). And about how Marcus Meldrew is the most annoying boy in the world and how I don't want to sit next to him in class. All I want to do is get tickets to see the best band ever, DUDE3, when they come to town. It's not easy when I'm up against Delia, my weirdo big sister, and all my plans seem to get me into MAJOR TROUBLE ... again.

Fluffy is a sleek and lovely kitty. Her claws are manicured and her home is spotless. Her neighbour, Scruffy, is NOTHING like Fluffy. His fur is smelly and his claws are grimy - and his house is messy and disgusting! But when the neighbours are both invaded by a large group of mice, the cats must work together to reclaim their homes... This fabulously funny picture book is by the creator of THE BRILLIANT WORLD OF TOM GATES and winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, Liz Pichon, and features friendship found in the most unlikely places!
Little Croc wants a pet. But his mum and dad have other news - they are expecting a baby. And when Baby Doris arrives, Little Croc decides she is the most annoying little sister ever - she wakes him up in the night, she scribbles on his pictures and she spoils his favourite toys. But luckily Little Croc's older brother Boris is there to show Little Croc that being a big brother can actually be a lot of fun. This warm and witty picture book is by the creator of THE BRILLIANT WORLD OF TOM GATES and winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, Liz Pichon, and features the highs and lows of family life - as seen by big siblings!
Little Croc loves his big brother, Boris. But lately Boris has been acting strangely. All he wants to do is eat and sleep and spend time with friends his own age - and he is SO grumpy. A brilliantly funny and reassuring tale about dealing with teenage siblings, written especially for little ones.
It's really cold outside and we're all hoping it's going to snow. Yeah! Derek and I could make a snow Rooster and have a snowball fight (look out, Delia!). Granny Mavis has started to knit me a new winter jumper, but by the looks of things I'm not sure it's going to fit...
