Comedian, writer and all-round funny guy Mike Barfield is back with another of his brilliant flip-books - this one might just dig you out of trouble as you start back at school.

With "The Ultimate Excuse Generator" you can whip up over 100 MILLION different excuses when your new teacher asks you why you didn't complete that summer book assignment, or where your Geography homework is.

With a quick random flip through the book, you can lay out the most exorbitant or the most likely sounding excuses, injected with a zany sense of humour by Mike.

It's a fab spiral-bound book that can stand up to plenty of punishment.

Perfect for stashing in your school bag for those awkward moments when you realise you forgot to get a note off your mum or dad to get you out of P.E - but really don't fancy a round of 500 star jumps to kick off a dreary drizzly tuesday.

"The Ultimate Excuse Generator" by Mike Barfield is out now, published by Laurence King Publishing (kindly supplied for review). 

Now this is something rather special - we've actually been hoping someone would do a really cool book about the Periodic Table of Elements for quite some time...

Here's a very, very silly book that is a huge amount of fun for your would-be Witches, Warlocks, Wizards and Mages...
