Detailed explanation-2: -WHERE DID YOU GET THE IDEA FOR TOM GATES? The Brilliant World of Tom Gates started out as a picture book idea and gradually ended up becoming the first book I wrote for older children. I imagined that Tom was writing in his own exercise book at school and Mr Fullerman would write comments in it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pichon became involved in children’s literature by illustrating other people’s books. However, she soon began to write and illustrate her own picture books. Her first book, Square-Eyed Pat, was published in 2003. It was followed by My Big Brother, Boris (2004), The Very Ugly Bug (2004), and Bored Bill (2005).
