good
it was very funny
It was funny and thrilling and did not get boring at any point of the book, I feel that most David Walliams books are repetitive though and could you a wider range of vocabulary.However, I liked the illustrations and style. David Walliams could also use more types of characters in his books but in conclusion, it was fun reading this book full of Action and Comedy.
It was a good book. My favourite person is the dad (Gilbert) as he's an great racer and sadly gets into an accident because of his motor.It was an interesting story about dad and a son.I would recommend it to someone who likes their family.
I didn’t like when franks dad Broke his leg. I recommend for other people to read it because it is a good book
Bad Dad is a brilliant fiction book. My favourite character is Frank because he helped his dad A lot since his accident as a racer and Frank tried to stop his dad from being bad. I would more than 100% recommend this to someone else because it has plot twists and is exciting.
This book is funny and has a life story not to steal money or to help to steal money because if you do you will get arrested and go to jail.
I absolutely loved this book, as it’s true to life for some people. Struggling with life , but turning it all round and making the most of what they have and what life throws that them.
I loved this book. I t was so funny! Dad goes from being hero to zero! My favourite character is Dad because he would do ANYTHING to make his son happy. He actually became a robber because he wanted to buy him a race car set! It is actually quite surprising when Mum turns out to be Mr. Big's new wife!
It is not that good as the other 1 but its good
I liked dad in the story because he loves his son
Its a story of a father and a son. Although the story was interesting but at the same time it was sad too.
Sad because the father was part of Mr Big's team, the Crime Boss. And the son wanted his father to leave Mr. Big's team but his father told he was doing all this for his son.
My favourite was the son - Frank.
I may recommend it to my friends.
It was a very very good fiction book about a boy whose dad was a banger racer, but after he lost his leg he lost his job and took part in a crime but made wrong a right.
I would like to recommend this to the people who like racing.
A thriller: join the world of dad and frank on a TOP SECRET mission.
I think it is not fair for Gilbert to have no share of money when if he wasn’t there the burglars could be caught.My favourite character is Auntie Flip because she makes funny poems. My favourite moment in the book was when Auntie Flip switched places with Gilbert.
My favourite character was Frank because he was so thoughtful and kind. I would recommend this to my brother because he’s so much like Frank.
My favourite character was Raj because he is funny. I would recommend this book although it is sad that they have no money, I thought Frank’s mum would give them some when M Big went to prison.
This book is ok but I prefer The Midnight Gang. I wonder if Bad Dad’s leg would still hurt today if this book was real and my favourite character is Bad Dad because he is a fantastic driver (even though he did get arrested).
I loved Bad Dad! My favorite character was Frank because he managed to break his father out of jail. I would recommend it to anyone who likes action stories
Long and crime
It is a hilarious story and is very exiting and my favourite character
It's really good but I would want it to have more pictures of the and for someone who loves funny book should read it
I though it was adventurous And it was fiction my favourite character was frank because he was
always looking on the bright side.
What this book was about:
This book was about a boy who had his mother and father. His father earned lots of money by car racing but had a terrible accident. He even lost his leg. Not only that he lost his wife too. Because of the accident she had left them as no - one now wanted to give him a job. They went through many difficulties. But that wasn't all, the boy's father was hiding something, something big.
What I think about that book:
I think that the people who gave the boy and his dad difficulties deserve to be in jail! I also think that he deserved to be free of jail because of what had really happened.
Fiction or factual:
This book was fiction and my favorite character was Frank -the boys name.
Would I recommend this book to someone else?
Yes, my cousin
I think this book is splendid!
This book is fiction. I liked Frank because he planned everything to get his father (Gilbert Goodie) out of Prison (Wrongfoot Prison).
I would definitely recommend this to children who like long and funny books.
David Williams is a very good author and all his books are very funny and enjoyable. This book is about a boy called Franks whos dad is banger racer. He always wins every race but one day got hurt in a crash and couldn’t race anymore. He couldn’t get any job in the town and couldn’t provide for his family. He did find one job, but Frank didn’t like the idea of it. It was to help some very evil people to rob a bank. I really like this book because it is exciting from start to finish and was hard to put down.
I loved this book a lot how Gilbert the dad is a famous racing driver and drives this car called Queenie. My favourite character is Gilbert because he is a famous racing driver. I would love to recommend this book 5 stars!
I though it was an interesting story.
My favourite character was Gilbert Goodie.
I would recommend this book to someone else.
Its very funny I did really like Rita because she had mixed feelings.
