Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Review:
Parents will be quick to jump to the conclusion that there can be nothing appealing in a tale of an ugly kid who breaks things. And certainly--from that adult perspective--there's something off-putting about the illustrations of David, with his potato head, feral eyes, and a maniacal grin that exposes ferociously pointed teeth. But 3- and 4-year-olds see things differently, and will find his relentless badness both funny and liberating. "No, David," wails the off-stage mother, as David reaches for the cookie jar. "No! No! No!" as he makes a swamp out of the bathroom. "Come back here, David!" as he runs naked down the street. Each vivid double-page illustration is devoted to a different youthful indiscretion and a different vain parental plea. Readers will be amused to know that the protagonist's name is no accident: award-winning writer-illustrator David Shannon wrote the book after discovering a similar effort that he had made, again with himself at the center of each drawing, at the age of 5. (Ages 3 to 6) --Richard Farr

Product Description:
David's mom always said no! No,no,no. No,David! is Shannon's delightfully illustrated book of all the naughty things he used to get told off for as a child. Follow David as he jumps on his bed, walks mud through the house and breaks plant pots.

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

- A perfect book for kids who mess up!
It seems that David is nothing but trouble in this colorful tale. But Mom loves him no matter what mistakes he makes, which makes this a great book for those times when a child feels like they're nothing but a bundle of mistakes.

Rating:

- Great Book
This is a great children's book! My daughter loves this book. Even very young children can understand and relate to this story, and the illustrations are brightly colored and childlike. Overall, this is a truly excellent book.

Rating:

- SPANISH LANGUAGE VERSION
I didn't pay attention and purchased the Spanish version. Nothing wrong with that, except I don't speak Spanish. I'm keeping it to avoid the hassle and am re-ordering... just letting the rest of you know. :)Other than that, I'd give it 5 stars... so, technically, I'm rating Amazon's marketing.

- terrible book!
this book is AWFUL. this kid david wreaks havoc in his parent's life and is just told "NO" throughout the book. then, in the end, when he breaks his mother's favorite vase after being told not to play baseball in the house, he gets a big hug from someone we never see and is told that he is loved. it's a PATHETIC book. the only good thing about the book is that clearly the author grew up in a nice house because the furniture is nice in the book.
