No, David!

The Caldecott Honor-winning classic by bestselling picture-book creator David Shannon

When David Shannon was five years old, he wrote and illustrated his first book. On every page were these words: NO, DAVID . . . and a picture of David doing things he was not supposed to do. Now David is all grown up. But some things never change. . . .Over fifteen years after its initial publication, NO, DAVID remains a perennial household favorite, delighting children, parents, and teachers alike. David is a beloved character, whose unabashed good humor, mischievous smile, and laughter-inducing antics underline the love parents have for their children--even when they misbehave.
