About this listen

Bad Dad, from Children's author David Walliams.

Dads come in all sorts of shapes and sizes.

There are fat ones and thin ones, tall ones and short ones.

There are young ones and old ones, clever ones and stupid ones.

There are silly ones and serious ones, loud ones and quiet ones.

Of course, there are good dads, and bad dads …

good narrating

I found it a wee bit sad at moments but if you know David Walliams, raj or anyone else in his amazing BOOKS👍👍👍💖💕😺😺..... will make you laugh
my favourite character was close between raj and frank but I lean towards frank more than raj because of how many books raj is in.
but I chose frank because of how risky and funny yet weirdly saving himself in a way I can't quite explain.

ok so what your reading right now is my opinion of this audio book which is simply amazing but you may or may not agree ,any way its for pretty much all ages except if your mum isn't around or if you have a fear of jail…

IT IS AMAZING I RECOMMEND IT SO MUCH

This book is so good for boys and girls! I love how the boys dad is in a tough situation but all he is trying to do is earn money and care for his son, also I love how his son tries to help his dad get out of prison because he knows that his dad has made a mistake but didn't mean to.. David Williams is a fantastic author and amazing at writing touching stories that both kids and adults can enjoy and laugh to! AMAZING! 🌏😊👑💎💙🌼
