"No" and "David" were the first words David Shannon learned how to spell. Shannon's Caldecott Honor Book No, David! is based on a book he made as a child showing a kid doing all the things he isn't supposed to do. In the sequel David Goes to School, it turns out that teachers say no, too. And in this third picture book, it's David's turn to talk back. What does he say when he gets in trouble? "I didn't mean to." (Skateboarding into a lamp table.) "It was an accident!" (Hitting a baseball into a window.) "I forgot!" (Happily walking down the street... in his underpants.) "But Dad says it!" (Boy in corner with mouth full of soap.) Of course, the cat-tail-pulling, burping, grape-juice-dropping, runny-egg-hating, out-of-control David wins us over in the end. A defiant "No, it wasn't me!" evolves into a guilt-ridden, late-at-night shout, "Yes! It was me! I'm sorry. I love you, Mom." Awwww. Shannon's expressive, childlike paintings of the round-headed, shark-toothed David-in-trouble perfectly capture the manic joys of early boyhood. (Ages 3 and older) --Karin Snelson
Product Description
"When David gets in trouble, he always says . . . 'NO! It's not my fault! I didn't mean to! It was an accident!'" Whatever the situation, David's got a good excuse. And no matter what he's done "wrong," it's never really his fault. Soon, though, David realizes that making excuses makes him feel bad, and saying he's sorry makes him feel better. Once again, David Shannon entertains us with young David's mischievous antics and a lighthearted story that's sure to leave kids (and parents) laughing.

 not as good as 'no, david!' July 8, 2008
While this is still a fun book, our 3 year-old (and her daddy, i admit) found this one not nearly as good as "No, David!"[ASIN:0590930036 No David!]]; on a number of the pages, it's not clear why or how David got in trouble.[
 It's Not His Fault! June 26, 2008

David's always in trouble, whether he pulls the cat's tail-he says she likes it- or sticks his finger in the cake-leaving evidence all over his face.
This book is just as cute as the other 'No, David' books. Once again, David Shannon helps every child- and adult- understand David's world with his simple, yet beautiful pictures and simple phrases. My boys love it and I do, too.
Cute series! June 19, 2008
I got these books (I also purchased the other about David) for my two year old son whose name is David. He thinks it's pretty neat these books have his name in them.
Excellent book for PreK June 18, 2008
This book is excellent for the PreK child. I introduced my grandaughter to the whole 'David' series when she was 3, she is now 6 and still loves her David books, and now she can read all of them by herself.
Great read for you and your child May 31, 2008
My 17 month-old loves the David books. The illustrations are really goofy and fun and I don't mind reading it over and over.
