About the author

Tom Nokes, from Oldham in Manchester, has spent the past decade inspiring young minds as a dedicated primary school teacher. Known for his fun, creative nature in the classroom—and his impressive collection of fancy dress outfits—Tom brings a sense of joy and imagination to everything he does. It’s no surprise, then, that when the time came to write his first book, he knew it had to be about something totally random. Outside the classroom, Tom is also a passionate netball coach and player, sharing his love of the game with both children and adults alike. Who knows—maybe we’ll see a netball-inspired book one day!
