Dreams of rock stardom take the edge off embarrassing family activities in Tom's fourth "homework diary" crammed with doodles and stories. After receiving the shock of a lifetime -- seeing his big sister, Delia,
without her sunglasses on -- Tom is
trying to gear himself up for sports day at school. It does not
help that his dad is training for the parents' race on that day -- and plans to wear bizarre cycling shorts! Meanwhile, Tom's band, DogZombies, is supposed to play in the school talent show, meaning they'd better start practicing -- a
lot. It might all be worth it, though, if the absolutely
brilliant band DUDE3 appears as special guests!
