Illustrations not included; laughs still guaranteed – Tom Gates’s diaries might typically include lots of funny doodles, but they’re just as hilarious when read aloud. Especially when actor Rupert Grint, best-known for playing Ron in the Harry Potter films, is doing the reading. So all doodlers need to do to join Tom and his friends at Oakfield Primary is pop him on top of a Toniebox. They’ll be scarpering round the school corridors, winding up Tom’s sister Delia, and trying to avoid the beady eyes of teacher Mr Fullerman in no time. This feature-length Tonie is based on the first book in the Tom Gates series, The Brilliant World of Tom Gates. Great for older listeners, it follows Tom’s escapades at school and at home, as reported by Tom in the pages of his hilarious doodled-on diaries. Tom’s teachers think he’s easily distracted, but this Tonie is designed to keep little doodlebugs focused. Divided into short chapters and full of funny incidents, they can pop this Tonie on when an extra-entertaining storytime adventure is required – whether they’re listening in the car, relaxing at home, or winding down before bed. Oh, and this story is just perfect for doodling along to. Of course.
