Why Steve Was Late
New Hardback Illustrated
Postscript summary
These cartoon illustrations and one-line commentaries introduce Steve and all his excuses for having been late 101 times this year. A handy compilation for those who need to justify their own lapses in punctuality, they range from plausible scenarios that belie bizarre situations to the downright fanciful – getting lost in a Where’s Wally convention or stumbling through a time portal.

Full publisher description
Ever been late? Steve has. Lots. But he always has a good excuse. Here are 101 real corkers for you to enjoy. And maybe even borrow...
* Distracted by a surprisingly complicated Kinder toy
* Overcome by the urge to alphabetise my pets
* Forgot how trousers work
* Became temporarily feral
* Got stuck in a romantic montage
Why Steve Was Late is a book of hilarious (and even - occasionally - plausible!) reasons for tardiness, handily dreamed up and illustrated by someone else.
