Middle-school comedian, homework dodger, rock-star wannabe, master doodler—Tom Gates is back with two more episodes full of visual humor and kid appeal.
No school for two whole weeks! Now Tom has plenty of time for the good stuff, like finding new ways (so many!) to annoy his big sister, Delia. Or watching TV and eating caramel candy. Or most important, band practice for DOGZOMBIES in his best friend Derek’s garage (while not encouraging Derek’s ’60s-music-crazed dad). All that stands between this band and rock greatness is, well, a song (besides "Delia’s a Weirdo"). And finding a drummer. And landing a gig. Will Tom let a killer toothache and pesky overdue homework get in his way?

TOM GATES IS AWESOME!!
I think it is cool and adventurous go through making excuses and getting into trouble but with a nasty tooth infection and trying to find a new drummer it is going to take a lot of skills to do it.But when someone is found out cheating it is up to Tom to find out who it is. I rate this book 5 stars because it made me lol and it is adventurous
