Fantastic story as always! My daughter loved Auntie Flip and the majestic return of sentimental Raj!

David Walliams has done it again!
Oh my goodness! I loved this story.
I adored the LGBTQ+ representation in this story and how it wasn’t portrayed as unusual or wrong, the characters simply liked each other and nobody remarked about it. I hope to see more of his books include more characters from this community as this was just refreshing to see in children’s books.
As always, this was hilarious and completely action packed with every page. His books only take me a few hours to read, I just get sucked in and imagine myself with these characters - and Raj the beloved newsagent - and go on whatever crazy adventure David Walliams has stirred up this time.
What I mainly love about his books is that within each story this wonderful writer leaves a heartwarming message to all his readers within the pages and for his target audience, I think this is just fantastic.
I will always buy Mr Walliams’ books, for they are truly inspiring and magnificent.

As always, David Walliams doesn't disappoint! The book was tons of fun and I love the LGBT representation!

This book is rather emotional and moving, when I first read this novel , I was not expecting it to be the way it is as david walliams doesn't write like this but nonetheless this book is awesome. I would strongly reccomend this book to any reluctant readers as it does not use any too sophisticated vocabulary unlike other books (Demon dentist, Midnight gang etc.) This book holds a strong yet simple moral that we see in everyday life. Two things for those who are reading my review but have not yet read "Bad dad." Number 1: I am not going to spoil the book, 2, you will definetly find this book funny and charming,

Another amazing book written by David Walliams. Every time. His books are funny and exciting and always full of adventure. Mr Walliams manages to write a story that is full of meaning that can teach young ones the important things in life.

Amazing/Sad at the same time 😀😭

The terrible rating is perhaps harsh but it takes into account the expectations around a Walliam's book. Particularly looking at the Boy in the Dress, his first novel, I found it very difficult to like Bad Dad, for many reasons. Being very cynical, it felt like the kind of novel that an established and very successful novelist can bring out - formulaic and basically not very good - but know it will sell anyway. There are so many repeated motifs and jokes. Not always a bad thing - Dahl did it plenty, Dahl to whom Walliam's is impossibly compared - but some of the choices here result in it being difficult to distinguish elements of Bad Dad from his other books. The poor, hard-done-to father/son combo and a couple of irritating yet loving female characters on the side mirrors the cast of Demon Dentist a little too closely. Simply put, it felt like I'd read it before.
The story is typical, a mixture of tough, working class British feel good movie with dark comedy and Raj the newsagent. The dad gets mixed up with the wrong sorts after narrowly escaping a bad racing car accident. The son spies on dad to try and keep him out of trouble and of course everything goes wrong. Then clever son thinks of a genius and improbable plan to save his dad, clear his name and ruin the evil crime lord who has wrecked their lives. Walliam's mixes urban demolition derby with bits of muddy British countryside, along with a few secret hide-outs and posh mansions. There are so many illustrations that it takes away a little the power of the imagination, but even so it all feels very familiar and well-trodden.
The biggest irritance is the exponential increase of font style and size gymnastics as Walliam's career progresses. It's like a child has been set loose on Microsoft word and has to try out every typeface and Wordart they can find. It is so frequent that the whole thing loses its effect and it becomes just boring and annoying. The car chase/crash theme turns Bad Dad into an onamatepeaic nightmare. Aside from the fact that I hate car chases and find them always annoying, here they are described in such a repetitive and unimaginative manner that they become very dull to read. I know a suspension of disbelief is necessary with such a book but I also felt there was a lack of consequence and responsibility in the story - they same irritating feeling that Bond never takes responsibility for the sheer idiocy and danger of his driving escapades.
Nit picking, I know. It's supposed to be fun and silly. Problem is, Bad Dad isn't either. Walliam's has had plenty of hits but this is a big miss. Looking back at the humour and the thoughtful plot in The Boy in a Dress it makes one wonder how a writer can develop in completely the wrong direction. 2

Avendo scoperto il piacere della lettura a sedici anni, ho saltato alcune tappe di "genere". Ho scoperto adesso cosa vuol dire leggere un BELLISSIMO libro per bambini e ragazzi. Voglio continuare a leggere altro di Walliams... Papà Bandito mi ha spezzato il cuore.

Työkirja, luettu etätyöpäivänä.
Pankkirosvon poika on kuin snadisti kliseinen gansterileffa lastenromaaniksi väännettynä. Kirja alkaakin jo kuin leffa: Frankin isä lähtee iltaisin töihin ajamaan rallicrosskuskina ja noina iltoina äiti vetäytyy makuuhuoneeseen supattamaan puhelimeen. Isä joutuu onnettomuuteen, äiti häipyy toisen miehen matkaan. Kun Frankin isä menettää työn, koittaa isälle ja pojalle kovat ajat. Köyhyys ajaa ahtaalle ja pian isä onkin rikollispomon kynsissä. Siitä alkaa seikkailu, johon liittyy paljon pakoautoja ja vauhtia. Vaarallisia tilanteita, vankiloita, hämäyksiä, oikeudenkäyntejä ja monta sivujuonta ja -hahmoa.
Kirja on lastenromaaniksi melko pitkä yli 400 sivullaan ja itsekin meinasin ihan hengästyä sitä lukiessani, sillä 400 sivuun mahtuu t o d e l l a paljon käänteitä. Toisaalta pidän siitä, että lapsillekin tehdään pitkiä romaaneja, mutta niin monesti töissä on ollut tilanteessa, jossa kirja tyrmätään koska se on pitkä (esim. 200 sivua), että onhan tämä varmasti monelle haaste.
En oikein tiedä mitä mieltä olen Walliamsin kirjoista (olen lukenut niitä nyt yhteensä 2,5, ellen väärin muista). Tavallaan ne ovat ihan hauskoja ja niistä tulee vähän Roald Dahlin kirjat mieleen. Lisäksi niissä käsitellään tärkeitä asioita, kuten miten raha ei tee onnelliseksi, tai sukupuolirooleja, tai seksuaalivähemmistöjä (ainakin tässä kirjassa pienessä sivujuonessa). Mutta samalla niissä on tökeröjä juttuja, kuten lihavuuden vääntäminen vitsiksi tai hivenen kyseenalaiset kiinalaisvitsit... Ainakin näin aikuislukijana ne pistävät silmään, etenkin toistuessaan kirjasta toiseen.
Tässä kirjassa oli myös niin monta peppu-vitsiä ja peppu jonkun naamaan -vitsiä, että mietin paljonko sivuja olisi saanut napsittua, jos ne kaikki olisi jättänyt pois. Ainakin useamman sivun.
Ehkä Walliams on hieman vanhemman sukupolven edustajana ja koomikkona löytänyt tällaisista vitseistä kultasuonen, ja saanut ihmiset nauramaan. Niinpä hän käyttää niitä lastenkirjoissa. Ehkä hänkin voisi kuitenkin päivittää vitsisalkkuaan sellaisilla jutuilla, joille voisi oikeasti nauraa sen sijaan, että joutuu pyörittelemään silmiään.
Näiden kyseenalaisten juttujen vuoksi en mielelläni Walliamsin kirjoja pahemmin vinkkaile tai suosittele, ja tätä tuskin ottaisin vinkkauksiin ihan vain paksun sivumäärän vuoksi. Mutta täytynee kuulla vinkkarituttujen mielipiteitä ja päättää sitten, olenko itse vain taas liian tiukkapipoisella tuulella.

I've only read a few Walliams books, but I seem to have just read them all over again. Elements of The Boy in the Dress and Gangsta Granny in particular.
No successful female role models is my main complaint. There is a very nice vicar, but her church is empty and leaking. The main characters are a lad of nearly twelve and his dad, a veteran stock car racer. I like that disability - in this case the dad is an amputee from early on - and gay ladies are introduced without dramatics and featured as part of normal life. (Though no disability benefit is forthcoming.) As in other books the mother (she's not gay) is ready and willing to abandon her child for something or someone more interesting.
My young relatives enjoyed the adventure and there are colour drawings throughout, on shiny paper, making it quite a heavy book. This all makes it pricey so ideally you'd want kids to share. With car races and unlikely drives - Rolls Royces are heavy and not aerodynamic - and a villainous crime boss leeching off shopkeepers and borrowers, there's excitement and more than a few life lessons. Not too many of the tedious lists this time but tedious and bad poetry. While the use of varied fonts for words within lines is fun for kids, it hurt my eyes and makes the book look scribbled on though new. But it's a kids' book.
This is an unbiased review.

David walliams continues to impress. This book had a strong story line, humour and much less lists than previous books. Illustrations really add to it. Great to read a book about a strong father son bond.
January 13, 2018
This was a very good book. Bad Dad is a fast and furious, heart-warming story of a father and son on an adventure – and a thrilling mission to break an innocent man into prison! would recommended this to anyone needing a very good easy read

My 9yo is a big fan of David Walliams so she wanted me to read this and im glad i did it was so much fun! Filled with great illustrations and very funny, they are the perfect book for young (and older ;)) readers.
I love that Franks dad had one leg and it broke my heart that Franks mum walked out on him but it just makes the characters more loveable that they aren't the picture perfect family. They just needed each other.
But maaaaan i would of took lots more of Mr Bigs money for myself haha

Excellent and entertaining book I read to my six year old daughter that had us both laughing out loud. Now we are on to the next book of the same author called Fing and loving that one just as much
May 20, 2019
Yksitoistavuotias Frank ihailee suunnattomasti rallicossia ajavaa isäänsä Gilbertiä, ja livahtaa usein salaa katsomaan isän kilvanajoa. Kamalaa kyllä, isä joutuu eräänä iltana hirvittävään onnettomuuteen. Hän selviytyy hengissä, mutta menettää jalkansa ja samalla työpaikkansa. Köyhtynyt perhe joutuu nyt tulemaan toimeen kädestä suuhun, sillä puujalkainen mies jää aina hakijoista viimeiseksi ja entinen hurjimus tuntee olevansa nyt kurjimus.
Lopulta isä saa kuitenkin töitä, mutta hän ei suostu kertomaan siitä mitään Frankille, jonka epäilykset heräävät. Nyt ei kaikki ole kunnossa, ja niinpä Frank päättää vakoilla isäänsä... (Lukunäyte sivulta 73-74.)
David Walliamsin "Pankkirosvon poika" (Tammi, 2019) osoittautui vallan mainioksi sekoitukseksi alakoululaisille sopivaa jännitystä, hömelöä huumoria*, isän ja pojan välisestä suhteesta tiristettävää sentimentaalisuutta ja Riehakas ryöstö -elokuvaa (1969). Seksuaalivähemmistöjä tuodaan myös varsin sympaattisella tavalla esille, asiaa mitenkään alleviivaamatta, ja onpa mukana myös vanha tuttu kioskinpitäjä Raj!
Sivuja kirjassa on yli neljäsataa, mutta Tony Rossin oivallinen kuvitus vie siitä usemman sivun, joten nopeastihan tämä läpi lukaisee. Lapsilukijoita kirjan paksuus saattaa toki säikyttää.
No, mitäs vielä? Ei tämä ollut minusta ihan niin hyvä kuin Poika ja mekko ja tuskinpa siitä muodostuu samanlaista vinkkaushittiä kuin Gangsterimummista, mutta kyllä minä taidan tätä muksuille kuitenkin yrittää tarjota. Vinkkausten kohderyhmä voisi olla hyvin lukevista kakkosista jonnekin nelosluokkalaisiin, mutta kentältä kantautuvien huhujen mukaan myös siskotytön ykkösluokkalainen ja esikoululainen olivat tästä tykänneet ääneen luettuna.
* Walliams viljelee mielestäni vähän turhan paljon peppuvitsejä, mutta annan sen kirjailijalle anteeksi, koska pahispomon kissat oli nimetty Ronnieksi ja Reggieksi.

Táto knižka je tiež veľmi dobrá. Ale dve hviezdičky jej strhávam za ten hrozný koniec. Pripadá mi že spisovateľ prvýkrát nemyslel na deti. Mylela som si že som si zvolila v kníhkupectve dobrú voľbu meďže obal ma zaujal a popis o knižke tiež. Lenže niekedy je dobrý celý príbeh okrem konca. Koniec by mal byť podľa mňa dobrý tak že všetko dobre dopadne. Podľa mňa by spisovatelia ktorý píšu knihy pre deti mali používať vhodné slová a hovoriť o tom ako to je skôr v skutočnom živote aj keď v rozprávkach nemusí byť všetko podľa skutočného života. No podľa mňa keď už spisovateľ píše o tom čo by sa reálne mohlo stať mali by skôr deti navnadiť k dobrému. No ako vidím tak ma prvýkrát Walliams sklamal za toto: v knihe napísal to že sa spolu oženili dve ženy. Podľa mňa koniec nie je až tak úplne šťastný. Keď sa dve ženy oženia tak to nemá zmysel. Spisovateľ mal viac myslieť na deti. Tri hviezdičky len za obal a obsah bez konca.

One of the worst so far.
I think the writer has a strong hidden aversion towards women. In almost every book, a mother-figure character is someone who abandons or neglects children, if not that then abuses them ..
Maybe I'm biased since I'm a mom, and maybe I know from experience.... there are so much more Super Moms out there than Super Dads.
The story itself sucks. It did not interest or touch me at all.

Bad dad is a book I would highly recommend. At first i thought it would be pretty set explanatory but as I got further into the plot, I realised there is so much more than what the front cover and the blurb shows us. Walliams is one of the best authors this century! I hope he will continue writing and acting in the rein-acted versions of his stories. Oh and I hope Raj stays in the books too!

This book might be too easy for most MS kids and the plot is definitely for younger readers. My 3rd grade daughter loved it and begged me to read it.
I have had MS kids read Walliams books in the past and I can see now that they might be accessible, but really a bit too simple for deeper thinking book.
It's a quick fast ride, which can be great sometimes.

"Tata ima sve što meni treba, još i više od toga. I ne mora ni u koga uperiti pištolj kako bi me natjerao da ga volim."
Tako će mali Frank pričati o svom ocu, bivšem automobilskom trkaćem asu. A djeca će naučiti da neki ljudi nisu loši već da su dobri, ali čine loše stvari.
Klinci i klinceze, čitajte Walliamsa jer on to stvarno zaslužuje.

This book is amazing. I’m happy Raj is in it because I think it was in one of the books I have read he is not in it. I am kind of like Auntie Flips poems because they rhyme. Would definitely give this a five star and tell EVERYONE to read it.

Another great book by Walliams. Though I am some decades older than the intended reader, I really enjoyed this book.
