No, David!

Author: David Shannon

Illustrator: David Shannon

Award: 1999 Caldecott Honor Award

No, David! was written about a little boy named David.  He gets himself into all kinds of trouble.  He is quite 'hard headed' so when he mom says 'No, David' he, of course, doesn't listen.  My students favorite page is when mama says 'come back here David' after a bath, and the next page shows him running down the street with nothing on. This is the cutest book with illustrations drawn by what seems a little kiddo would draw.  Children can relate to the words, and the pictures in this book.  In the end, his mom tells his she still loves him.  This is a great book for a lesson on punishment because of a behavior, not because of the person.
