Tom Gates – Môj Geniálny Svet (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Tom likes to sit in the back of the classroom, it's so much easier to avoid Mr. Fullerman's beady eyes and he can read and draw his comics. But, Mr. Fullerman switches up the desks and Tom finds himself right at the front of class next to the most annoying boy, "Moany" Marcus and the "Brilliant" Amy Porter. The Brilliant World of Tom Gates is a notebook style novel that follows Tom's escapades as he tries to land tickets to a concert for his favorite band Dude3, while not getting in trouble for annoying his older sister or forgetting to turn in his homework on time. I think the illustrations are what makes this book. Especially those beady eyes staring down at Tom. My adult sensibilities wished Tom would have had more consequences for some of his behavior, but the intended audience I imagine wont mind this. A great read for reluctant readers, children in middle school, and Diary of a Wimpy Kid fans.It's about Tom Gates, a self proclaimed rock star and middle-schooler. He loves to doodle in his notebook and is consistently doing so. This means that there are numerous fun doodles and comics to read aswell, which at times can be a great way to engage reluctant readers. It's also very relatable, he writes about being late, annoying siblings, and pulling pranks in school. He's pretty mischievous, and it makes for a funny read. Tom also writes in a notebook, similar to the Wimpy Kid, however I've been told by young readers that he's much cooler and adventurous. I definitely recommend this book for any young readers!
