Book Synopsis

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.

This book is great. Can't say any more. Late for work. -- Jo Brand
This book should be in itself yet another reason to be late. Brilliant. Stock up on excuses here. -- Al Murray, the Pub Landlord
I love Steve. He's hilarious. * Michael McIntyre *
