Mr. Bean's Definitive And Extremely Marvellous Guide To France

A hilarious, fully illustrated, madcap book published to coincide with Rowan Atkinson's new Mr. Bean movie, which releases September 28.
England is wet, and Mr. Bean is fed up. He dashes off a note to the queen to let her know he won't be available to chat for a few days, indulges in a few fantasy drawings of himself as a tanned man in swimwear, and sets off for the south of France. Mr. Bean has a new video camera (although he had intended to buy a kettle) and records every detail of his journey, culminating in his trip the Cannes Film Festival, where the results of his home video--the Mr. Bean movie--are being screened. But we are doubly blessed: Mr. Bean has also turned his hand to travel writing. On his way back to England, he develops his own rating system (a range of Post-it notes saying everything from "excellent" to "a pile of poo"), and stickers everything in sight. For our edification, his scrapbook also includes souvenirs, menus, sugar wrappers, postcards and photographs that he has collected en route.
Not merely a tie-in but a stand-alone humor book, Mr. Bean's holiday journal is so useful, you won't even need to go to France.
