My name’s Tom, I’m the fella who wrote and illustrated the book (illustrated is just a posh way of saying I drew the pictures). I’m here to tell you a little bit about myself. I used to be a cartoonist for a newspaper, it was my job to draw cartoons of prime ministers and Presidents. After that I started writing and illustrating my own books. I like football, fizzy sour sweets, laughing lots, sausages, staring out of the window and writing books. I have a silly children, three wives and a lovely dog … no hang on, I mean I have a silly dog, three children and a lovely wife.
