I can! I remember the first picture I did that my mum pinned up on a board. It was the first picture I did with oil pastels - not wax crayons - and the colours were fantastic.

From an early age I'd get presents of new pencils or paints - even at secondary school those were the things I loved best, like some Caran D'Ache pencils or some watercolour paper. And my friends thought I was weird, like, 'Was that all you got for Christmas?' In terms of an age recommendation, I think these are great books for ages 8+ and if you want to start at the beginning, the first Tom Gates book is The Brilliant World of Tom Gates, which was first published in 2011.

The tenth Tom Gates book, Tom Gates: Super Good Skills (Almost..) sees Tom go on holiday with his family to a slightly underwhelming holiday camp (with hilarious results). It also features tons of cool drawing and writing holiday activities for you to do. Just copy things - find pictures you like and trace over them. You learn a lot about drawing by tracing things. Try out different materials - pencils, paints, watercolours, pens, all sorts. Same with writing. Don't be frightened of making mistakes. There has also been a stage production, Tom Gates Live, which has travelled throughout the UK. There are currently no new dates planned.

In 2019, the Birmingham Stage Company presented a stage play called Tom Gates Live on Stage! that featured the characters in live action. [5] It toured the UK and starred Matthew Chase as Tom Gates and Amy Hargreaves as Delia. [6] Television [ edit ] This tenth book in the series comes with doodle your own elements to keep Tom Gates fans happy for hours. My grandson loved it . Had previously bought all the Tom Gates books for my 7 year old grandson and from being a reluctant reader he absolutely loved them., so when “Random Acts of Fun” came out it was a no-brainer. He absolutely loves this one as well.” PerryE Tom and Derek are in a band called Dog Zombies, consisting of Tom on guitar, Derek on keyboard, and classmate Norman Watson on drums.

Mum was very creative - there was always a project going on in the house. She was fantastic at drawing but she had no confidence in her skills; she was also great at crafts - patchwork quilts, pressed flowers, dressmaking, everything.

Aged around 10 years old, Tom is the younger of the two children of Frank and Rita Gates, and the younger brother of Delia. [4] He attends Oakfield Primary School where he is in Mr Fullerman's Class 5F, under headmaster Mr Keen. Children in his class include Marcus Meldrew (who sits next to and consistently annoys Tom in class), and Amy Porter (who also sits next to Tom, but whom Tom hopes to impress). Also in his year at Oakfield is his best friend Derek Fingle, who also lives next door to him. Tom has a second neighbour, June Jones, that annoys Tom and dislikes his band.

Can you remember the first thing you ever drew? Did anyone else in your family encourage you to write and draw? The World's Worst Children by David Walliams and Tony Ross is flying off the shelves for this age range, and for a reason.

What was your favourite thing to do in the summer holidays?

I remember listening to the rain in the caravan and hearing my dad snoring at night, but even when the weather wasn't great we always found something to do. I have a soft spot for this series, so love it when a new book comes out. This one was hilarious. Kids eating bowls full of sugar, caramel doughnuts, cool grandparents and a whole heap of illustrations to boot!” Rania T. Ha! Maybe a bit! When I was young our family used to have holidays in a caravan in Littlehampton and I know my mum certainly never had the best time. She had to do all the same stuff - cooking, looking after us - in a much smaller space! Author, illustrator and friend of BookTrust Liz Pichon talks about her Tom Gates books, summer holidays and how she started out as an illustrator. She used to send me out to get the flowers from the neighbours' gardens with a pair of scissors so she could press them - I think she thought that if she sent me to get them I wouldn't get told off! What advice would you give to a child who wants to start drawing or writing - but doesn't think they're any good?
