6/12/2023 0 Comments David gets in trouble book![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This memorable character is nothing short of a force of nature, from his scribbled eyes and hair to his shark-sharp teeth. The exuberant artwork crackles with energy and color (including backdrops in lime green and bittersweet orange), as Shannon carefully hews to a child's-eye view of the world (adults appear only as limbs and torsos). Anyone can sympathize with David's trials and tribulations, whether he is scowling at his breakfast ("Do I have to?"), pulling the cat's tail ("But she likes it!") or sitting sullenly on the bathroom floor, soap wedged firmly in mouth ("But Dad says it!"). In this follow-up to No, David! and David Goes to School, Shannon finally lets David get a word in edgewise as in "No! It's not my fault!" and "It was an accident!" In a series of hilarious snapshots of trouble-in-progress, David hurtles from one scrape to another. That irrepressible fellow with the Charlie Brown head is back, trailing a whole new slew of disasters in his wake. ![]()
