Sally’s Dad Turns YouTuber

By Thorbjørn Christoffersen Thomas Brunstrøm

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’s dad has a problem. Sally thinks that it is much better fun to watch YouTube videos rather than listening to his stories. So he embarks on a new career. He wants to become a youtuber and starts filming everything from irritating pranks to disgusting pizzas and cringe-worthy dance videos. But as is most often the case with Sally’s dad it is not necessarily the best idea. 

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 Turns YouTuber is the tenth book in the series.
