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 Book Description: When author and artist David Shannon was five years old, he wrote a semi-autobiographical story of a little kid who broke all his mother's rules. He chewed with his mouth open (and full of food), he jumped on the furniture, and he broke his mother's vase! As a result, all David ever heard his mother say was "No, David!" Here is his story. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - No DavidI purchased this book for my 2 grandsons ages 2&4. It is their favorite book. I read it several times each time they come to visit. They are now saying NOOOOO DAVID. The artwork is great!! Rating: - Spawn of Something Awful!!Note: Cyber stalkers at work! Pathetic, aren't they? At least David does mischief in innocence. Cyber stalkers are vicious cowards!! At the end of the day-- all day-- do you wonder, really, whose children are in your house? Those can't be MY children! MY children would be much quieter, less rambunctious, and certainly models of good behavior. What child has sharp, pointed teeth--the better to resemble something monstrous? What child has beady monster eyes--the better to ... Read More Rating: - I must be David's mother!I bought this book a few years ago, when I had two sons. Now that I have three sons, I find that when I read this book I should have written a book just like it about my third son. I'm always telling him no just as David's mother did to him. David Shannon is a brilliant artist and author. Just with his simple words-No, David!- and his simple pictures, he created a world that every child can understand and take delight in. All of my boys laugh hysterically every time we read it together! Rating: - No, DavidMy 4 yr old grandaughter loves this book and it's fun to read as well. Recommend it to anyone who has an active 4 yr old or older. Rating: - "ohana"Sofia,2 loves this book.
