Bad Dad is a humorous adventure story by bestselling children's author David Walliams that celebrates the bond between father and son. The plot involves a cops-and-robbers chase and a prison break scheme, but violence is comedic rather than graphic, and the story emphasizes loyalty, courage, and doing the right thing. It's appropriate for the middle-grade audience it targets, with mild language and no sexual content.
