Tom’s Books

Book cover of two children, Sarah and Charlie, peeking out from either edge of the page whilst a horde of comically zombie bunnies careen towards us. The page is dominated by the huge title, floating against the blue, sunburst backdrop, as if carved from chunks of gold - ‘How to Avoid Certain Death’. The authors name is carved into a piece of driftwood at the top of the page - Tom Clempson.
How to Avoid Certain Death – Middle Grade
Dark blue book cover in the style of a page from a teenage notebook - lined paper, doodles of lightning bolts, and scruffy, uneven white lettering that spells the book’s title - ‘One Seriously Messed-Up Week in the Otherwise Mundane and Uneventful Life of Jack Samsonite’ The name Jack Samsonite appears to have been added as an afterthought, replacing another name, Sam Taylor, that has been scribbled out in light blue pen. The author’s name appears at the top of the page in equally scruffy, yellow lettering - Tom Clempson
One Seriously Messed-Up Week in the Otherwise Mundane and Uneventful Life of Jack Samsonite – Young Adult
Bright red book cover in the style of a page from a teenage notebook - lined paper, doodles of vintage movie cameras, with scruffy, uneven white lettering that spells the book’s title - ‘One Seriously Messed-Up Week-End in the Otherwise Un-Messed-Up Life of Jack Samsonite’. The author’s name appears at the top of the page in equally scruffy, yellow lettering - Tom Clempson. A quote from the Daily Mail is positioned towards the bottom of the page and reads ‘A must for Inbetweeners fans’.
