Sally’s Dad Aces Christmas

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.
Christmas is just around the corner and Sally’s Dad is busy. This year, Christmas has to be completely perfect, in fact the best Christmas ever.

But of course things don’t pan out quite the way Sally’s Dad planned: the world’s biggest Christmas tree does not really fit in their flat, the dessert ends up brown instead of white and Santa apparently broke his leg…It will be a memorable Christmas, no doubt.

Sally’s Dad is a modern classic in Denmark, one of the country’s bestselling series with over 2 million copies sold across the series in Denmark alone. 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 Aces Christmas is the seventh book in the series.
