Sally's Dad Does Not Want To Be Grown-Up

Do you know Sally’s Dad?

It’s not always easy being Sally. Because Sally’s dad is both embarrassing and silly, and then he comes up with the most far-fetched ideas. But luckily, Sally and little brother Eddie know how to handle their dad. And actually, Sally’s dad is pretty funny too. At least if you ask him.

Sally is fed up with being a child. You always have to do something boring and the adults make all the decisions. Sally’s dad on the other hand has had enough of being an adult. They promptly decide to swap for the day: Sally will be the grown-up decision-maker and Sally’s dad will be the care-free child. Sally has to pick up dad at work, do the shopping and cook for the family. Sally’s dad has to go to bed early. It turns out to be the weirdest day ever.

Sally’s Dad is a present-day classic in Denmark, one of the country’s bestselling series with sales more than 1 million copies across all formats. This fresh, energetic and hilarious childrens book series tells about Sally and her Dad. The series is penned by author Thomas Brunstrøm and brought to life with illustrator Thorbjørn Christoffersen’s vibrant illustrations.

Sally’s Dad Does Not Want To Be Grown-Up is the second book in the series.
