No, David! by David Shannon

"A few years ago, my mother sent me a book I made when I was a little boy. It was called No, David, and it was illustrated with drawings of David doing all sorts of things he wasn't supposed to do. The text consisted entirely of the words "no" and "David." (They were the only words I knew how to spell.) I thought it would be fun to do a remake celebrating those familiar variations of the universal "no" that we all hear while growing. Of course, "yes" is a wonderful word...but "yes" doesn't keep crayon off the living room wall."
-- David Shannon

I enjoyed this book. It was a humorous take on very active little boys. I'm not sure how the house survived David, from playing baseball in the house to playing pirates in the bathtub. In the end David does get a 'yes' from his mother and it melted my heart. My husband read this book to our daughter and was not impressed with the book. He wasn't a fan of the drawings. I enjoyed the drawings though.
