Books like 'Tom Gates'? Try 'Wigglesbottom Primary' by Pamela Butchart—it’s shorter but packed with the same energy and absurd school-day scenarios. Or 'Barry Loser' by Jim Smith, which has that same 'lovable underdog' vibe. Both are quick reads but leave you grinning.
Oh, the joy of finding books that scratch the same itch as 'Tom Gates'! One underrated series I adore is 'Big Nate' by Lincoln Peirce—Nate’s school shenanigans and his constant battles against teachers are hilarious, and the comic strips sprinkled throughout make it feel super interactive. 'The 13-Storey Treehouse' by Andy Griffiths is another wild ride; it’s like Tom Gates’ imagination on steroids, with crazy inventions and nonstop jokes. For fans of the British vibe, 'Mr Gum' by Andy Stanton is delightfully weird, with a humor so off-the-wall it’ll make you snort-laugh. And if you like the 'diary' format, 'Dork Diaries' by Rachel Renée Russell offers a girl’s perspective with the same lighthearted drama. Honestly, these books are like comfort food—predictable in the best way, but always surprising when you least expect it.
I’ve been recommending 'Tom Gates'-style books to my younger cousin for ages! 'Planet Stan' by Jennifer L. Holm and Matthew Holm is a standout—Stan’s quirky family and his obsession with science are endlessly entertaining. 'I, Freddy' by Dietlof Reiche (about a golden hamster writing his memoir) is oddly charming, too. And if you want to go classic, 'Horrid Henry' by Francesca Simon is pure chaotic energy, though it’s lighter on illustrations. What ties these together is that sense of kids just being kids—messy, creative, and occasionally disastrous. My cousin now insists on reading them all under the covers with a flashlight, just like I did with Tom Gates.
For something a tad older but still in the spirit of 'Tom Gates,' 'Louisiana’s Way Home' by Kate DiCamillo has that mix of heart and humor, though it’s more lyrical. Closer to Tom’s world, 'The Terrible Two' by Mac Barnett and Jory John is a prankster duo’s saga that’s just as addictive. Both prove that 'similar' doesn’t mean 'same'—and that’s the fun part.
If you loved the chaotic, doodle-filled fun of 'Tom Gates is Absolutely Fantastic', you're probably craving more books that mix humor, relatable kid problems, and a touch of artistic flair. 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' by Jeff Kinney is an obvious pick—Greg Heffley’s misadventures have that same blend of cringe and comedy, plus those iconic stick-figure drawings. But don’t stop there! 'Timmy Failure' by Stephan Pastis is another gem, with its deadpan humor and absurd detective antics. For something a little more British, 'Billionaire Boy' by David Walliams has that over-the-top silliness Tom Gates fans adore.
If you’re after more doodles, 'Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life' by James Patterson (with illustrations by Chris Tebbetts) is packed with pranks and rebellion. And for pure, unfiltered kid-logic chaos, 'My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish' by Mo O’Hara is a riot. Honestly, half the fun is discovering how each series puts its own spin on the 'mischievous kid + drawings' formula. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve reread these while waiting for the next Tom Gates installment!

MAGICAL
(Everything about us... is magical.)
Melanie Spears thought she was an ordinary high school girl until she learned she wasn’t. Dragged into a hidden realm where magic rules and royal blood matters, she’s faced with choices no teenager should ever make. Torn between homework and hidden powers, a mysterious stranger guides her toward a destiny she never asked for.
As she steps into her royal role, Melanie discovers perks she never imagined, and dangers that could destroy everything she loves. With supernatural forces stirring in both her world and the human realm, she’ll have to be braver than she’s ever been.
School assignments clash with forbidden secrets. Friendships are tested. Emotions run wild and so does her magic. When she hears the word “danger,” it’s not a warning. It’s a prophecy.
Can she balance teenage life and a destiny she didn’t ask for?
Excerpt from the story: "Melanie, can you please stay back?"
"What do you mean?"
"Can you not go to school today? Stay at home, please." She pleaded with glassy eyes. I pulled her into an embrace.
"Can you tell me why you don't want me to leave?" "Danger." she whispered.
"I wouldn't have wished for the latter. I should have just maintained the first prayer. All because what I saw...was going to be the end of me, what I saw was terrifying. It was death!"
"What happens when you meet a tall and handsome elf king who has saved your life but kill your temper?"
~*~*~*~
"I'm more of a man in this house. Why can't you let me be on top?" Sean asked with a pout.
Oswin groaned, rolling his eyes and wondering just how much more innocent Sean could be. "It takes a heavy responsibility to be the top," he replied.
"Responsibility? Then it's perfect. I'm making more money, cooking,..."
"Sean. I'm talking about things like stretching and penetrating," Oswin explained as he ignored the bulge in his pants. "Do you even have experience?”
“Then teach me, your majesty.”
“With pleasure.”
~*~*~*~
It all starts when the elf king, Oswin Alvingham, mysteriously gets stuck in the human realm and loses his powers. As he roams the unfamiliar一dirty and low class if he is to describe Earth, he stumbles into Sean Cooper, a fresh graduate, and a full-time table-waiter, who gets bullied in the alley. Though Oswin's magical power is lost, his physical strength remains invincible. When he rescues Sean, the latter decides to take him in as gratitude. And that is where the mess begins. How can the king of the elf cope with his new life? How can Sean convince himself not to be evil enough to kick his savor out of his house? Most importantly, how do an average mortal and the noble upper-class immortal live together under the same roof and on the same bed?
~*~*~*~*
P.S:
1) This book contains mature and explicit 18+ scenes.
2) It also contains little graphic violence in some chapters, but I'll put a warning on the top of those chapters.
3) The ELF here is inspired by Lord of The Ring Series. Therefore, they are tall, slender and beautiful. Not tiny little beings like in children fairy tales.]
