About the book

See below for English description.

David, calme-toi! David, ne joue pas avec ta nourriture! David!... La mère de David n'apprécie pas toujours le comportement de son fils... mais l'important, c'est qu'ils s'aiment très, très fort.

Named a 1999 Caldecott Medal honor book. 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, jumped on the furniture, and he broke his mother's vase. As a result, all David ever heard his mother say was "No, David!"

Original title: No, David!
