Add to My Folder
Liz Pichon, author and illustrator of The Brilliant World of Tom Gates (Scholastic) has won the 2011 Roald Dahl Funny Prize and has been shortlisted for the Red House Children’s Book Award.
Liz – congratulations on being shortlisted for the Red House Children’s Book Award! How do you feel about Tom’s growing success?
I couldn’t be more pleased! It’s amazing and I still get very excited when I see the book in a shop, library or anywhere really. The Red House Children’s Book Award is special because it’s voted for by children, so that means a lot too.

Some people could say "Oooh, what a silly baby book." No it isn't; it's just a intermediate book with some FABULOUS doodles. I absolutely LOVE doodles. The books are SO fun to read. I would strongly recommend this book too anyone who likes funny stories. I finished Family, Friends and Furry Creatures in less than one day. Liz, these books are amazing . SO GO NOW & READ TOM GATES BOOKS

I absolutely love Tom Gates, it is really interesting and my class all like it too. We have a fan club and we like to doodle everything in your books. I am the best Monster drawer in my class and we sell the pictures and give the money to charities. Already we have raised quite a bit of money... I have read from The brilliant world of tom gates to A tiny bit lucky. Thankyou Liz Pichon, if i had a scale of awesomeness you would be so cool that you would break the end off. Thankyou Liz; you really are an author superhero you save me when I am not allowed to watch TV and your books are so amazing, I've already made my own one. One last time Liz Pichon amazing author please publish another book

Tom Gates
Tom Gates is the my favourite book. I can read them within 2 days because they are really funny! I’ve read 9 books all ready. I started to read them in March now it’s April 23rd 2019. I think everyone should at least try to read these books. I am surprised that people in my school haven’t heard of it . I try to tell them that it’s really funny but I can’t because I always laugh about the books.
