Tom calls his Granny and Granddad on his Dad’s side “The Fossils” because they’re VERY old - although most of the time, they have more energy than him. Mr Fullerman has a class assignment: a family tree! Tom's ready to learn all about the Gates family, his friends and a furry creature (or two!). Here's my EXCELLENT PLAN to make DogZombies the BEST band in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD! How hard can it be? (Very.)
