**NOTE ABOUT PRICING: the book is a little cheaper if you get it on Amazon, but if I don't charge a few dollars extra, I borderline lose money in buying copies at cost and selling them here. So these copies are all signed by me and can be personalized, and will also include a vinyl "Lloyd" sticker and a personal thank-you sticky note from me**

***NOW IN STOCK!!***

The first follow-up to "Lloyd the Chipmunk and the Quest for the Perfect Job" is a collection of 200 workplace-inspired sketches that began in 2005! "Valid Reasons for Being Late to Work" features Lloyd the Chipmunk in a series of reasons for being late. 

The book is entirely written and illustrated by me, John DiBiase.

Back cover description:

"In this quirky collection, follow Lloyd the Chipmunk through 200 hilariously  outrageous situations that leave him perpetually late to work, all depicted  in quick sticky-note sketches. From chaotic mornings to the perils of  the commute, Lloyd’s antics highlight the familiar struggle of getting out the  door on time. Valid Reasons for Being Late to Work offers a lighthearted  look at daily life's absurdities and the wild excuses we use when running  behind, perfect for anyone who’s faced their own "rush hour" moments."

More about this book:

"Honestly, I don’t remember exactly *how* “Valid Reasons for Being Late to  Work” began. The very first “Valid Reason” was birthed on January 4, 2005 - (I was 24 at the time) most likely right after returning to my office  job after the New Year holiday.

As you read them, please keep these facts in mind:

1. I drew these for me and my coworkers, I never intended to share them  with a wider audience.
2. There is NO continuity! (This frustrated my mom when she recently read through them.) Lloyd is sometimes a kid, sometimes a 20-something year-old,  sometimes married and sometimes a teenager -whatever he needed to be for the gag at the time.
3. Not all of them made it into this book. I did leave a few out that were either too stupid or too similar to other “Reasons” to be worth sharing again.
4. Lastly, some of the jokes are super “dated” - like flip phones! - so do keep that in mind, too."
