When Sally's Dad Was Young
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 has a problem. Her dad is the master of tall tales and Sally is finding it increasingly difficult to tell what is real and what is made up. He tells exaggerated tales about about the time when he was a boy, how he slept in a cardboard box, walked 14 km to school barefoot, but he was not harmed by that at all!
Sally doesn’t know what to believe – but one day she gets an idea. An idea about how to find out the truth…
