David Walliams is a superstar of kids’ books and he’s coming to Melbourne in December with his hilarious new novel, Bad Dad.

With smash hits including Ratburger, Awful Auntie, Billionaire Boy, Demon Dentist, Gangsta Granny and The World’s Worst Children, Walliams is a worldwide phenomenon in the world of children’s literature. His ability to wow fans is unrivalled, with global sales exceeding 20 million copies and books translated into 53 languages. His next classic-in-the-making, Bad Dad, is a fast and furious, heartwarming story that will have readers in stitches, in tears and on the edge of their seats.
