A totally trustworthy collection of completely made-up facts.
Did you know the real reason clocks were invented? That octopuses can predict divorce? Or that footballs were once stamped with a famous face?
You do now.
Absolutely, Definitely True is a deadpan compendium of 50 bizarre facts from a parallel Earth where cats pretend read maps and giraffes possess an unusual internal compass.
Each page features one deliciously untrue fact, designed to be read aloud to a chorus of raised eyebrows.
Perfect for fans of dry humour, pub trivia sabotage, and people who wish Horrible Histories had gone even further off the rails.
One fact per page. All illustrated. Absolutely, definitely (not) true.
(Not suitable for use in exams.)
