About this ebook

Hailed as “the heir to Roald Dahl” by The Spectator, the UK’s #1 bestselling children’s author, David Walliams, will have fans of Jeff Kinney and Rachel Renee Russell in stitches!

David Walliams burst on to the American scene with his New York Times bestseller Demon Dentist, and now he’s bringing his signature humor to this raucous tale of prison breaks and heists gone wrong in Bad Dad.

Frank’s dad was a champion hot-rod racer, Gilbert the Great. But when a terrible accident sees him go from hero to zero, Frank and Gilbert are left with nothing—and in the grips of a wicked crime boss and his henchmen. After Gilbert is thrown in prison, only Frank can come to his rescue. . .

This book was bad. It shows kids a very bad lesson that you don't need money. IF U DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY IMPORTANT STUFF, THEN YOU DIE CAUSE U CANT GET GOOD FOOD AND SHELTER!!! What I'm trying to say is that the main character, the son, literally gave away money that his dad stole. He said that he didn't need money, only his dad. Well, that was sweet, but if u have no money, then u die because u can't buy anything. Don't read this book, the other David Walliams books are better than this. PS. The title is so fake, his dad only stole money near the end, he wasn't the bad guy that robbed the bank.
