Mød Tom Gates i årets mest geniale børnebog. Den evige mester i skøre ideer og dårlige undskyldninger har taget børn over hele verden med storm. Nu lander han endelig i Danmark. Igennem Toms tegninger i sin notesbog, får læseren et unikt indblik i hans hverdag og kreative løsninger på livets små (STORE) problemer.Tom Gates' yndlingsband kommer til byen! Men det er hårdt at få fat i billetterne, når man både skal tage sig af sin megairriterende storesøster Delia, finde det perfekte navn til sit eget band, huske at lave lektier til tiden og at imponere klassens sødeste pige, Amy. Vil det lykkes Tom at få styr på det hele? Læs bogen og find ud af det!Pressen skriver:»I et fascinerende virvar af tegninger, doodles, udråb, lister, blandede kommentarer og lige så blandede skrifttyper fortæller Tom Gates om sit liv […] En sjov kloning mellem en let roman, en tegneserie og et personligt kladdehæfte.«– Birte Strandby, Bogvægten»Der er vanvittigt meget sjov og kreativitet, for drenge i særdeleshed, i denne illustrerede juniorbog. Forfatter Liz Pichon har genskabt et realistisk drengeunivers, der indeholder fabelagtige børnesprogsdialoger og skønne stregtegninger. På autentisk vis beskrives et overstadigt tempo af uheldige hændelser, som medfører høje grin og fnis. Tom Gates – Min geniale verden er en oplagt frilæsningsbog, der i høj grad lever op til udsagnet på bogens forside – "Læs den og dø af grin"!«– Caroline Erritzøe, Børn i byen »Den er skælmsk, humoristisk og virkelig underholdende bygget op med barnlige tegninger, pile alle vegne og små bitte bobler med underlige snakke i – som kun børn forstår.«– Ibi Makienok, Planetibi Instagram»Den viser på sjoveste vis, hvordan drenge i den alder ofte tænker og handler. Hvert udsagn i bogen er ofte ledsaget af en lille tegning, hvilket gør bogen endnu sjovere. Man kan let sætte sig ind i Toms kvaler, samtidig med man bare griner højlydt ad hans bestræbelser. At bogen er fyldt med små tegninger, gør den hurtig at læse, og siderne virker ikke så teksttunge.«– Henriette Olesen, Lektør»Den her bog er uovertruffen i at spille op til ballademageren […] og så får den voksne til at le. For Tom er noget af en charmerende gavtyv. Bogen er kort (alt for kort), og derfor vil jeg ikke afsløre nogen af de spradebasseting, han gør, men stol på mig, når jeg siger, du har lyst til at finde ud af det.«– Josephine, Bookeater Hvis du er interesseret i mere om Tom Gates, musik og andet sjov, så besøg www.lizpichon.com/tomgates
Egentlig er Tom Gates’ liv genialt. Hvis altså ikke lige det var for de der lektier, som Mr Fullerman har givet 5.F for (i ferien!); hans storesøster Delia (som gør, hvad hun kan for at forpeste hans liv!); og for nyheden om, at han og Derek er blevet udtaget til at være med i skolebandet (pattebørnsmusik og rasleæg!). Tom får brug for alle sine gode undskyldninger – og mere til – for at redde sig ud af kniberne.Gode undskyldninger (og andre fede ting) er den anden bog om Tom Gates - mester i skøre ideer og dårlige undskyldninger. Hans dagbøger er som altid spækket med sjove tegninger og skøre indfald. Læs bøgerne og dø af grin!
GEVINST! Den evige mester i skøre ideer og dårlige undskyldninger, geniale Tom Gates, lander nu for tredje gang i Danmark.Og det kan næsten kun blive superfedt, når året byder på fødselsdag, hundeshow, Dogzombies-koncert, sportsdag og skolediskotek uden irriterende storesøster Delias tilstedeværelse. Eller kan det? For så er der jo lige det med de der lektier (der ikke laver sig selv) og ham der Marcus Meldrew (der er en snedig snydepels) og hende der Bessemor Mavis (der ikke bager de bedste fødselsdagskager i verden). Mon Tom stadig kan snige sig ud af kniberne?Igennem Toms tegninger i sin notesbog, får vi et sjovt indblik i hans umådeligt kreative løsninger på livets små (STORE!!!) problemer. Bøgerne er fyldt med sprudlende illustrationer – spækket med ord, udråb og geniale detaljer. Den prisbelønnede bestsellerserie er oversat til 41 sprog og har solgt mere end 4,5 millioner eksemplarer på verdensplan og de seneste bøger i serien er strøget direkte ind som nummer et på den britiske bestsellerliste for børnebøger. Læs dem – og dø af grin.Pressen skriver:»Hvis du er vild med Wimpy Kid og Origami Yoda, vil du også kunne lide Tom Gates.«– Emil Blichfeldt, Weekendavisen»Overskuelig og let at gå til, også for dem der er knap så begejstrede for at læse og bare gerne vil have en skæg bog.«– Torben Wilhelmsen, Lektør
