Synopsis: (from the publisher) This light-hearted companion to the Caldecott Honor Book "No, David!" is an entertaining, laugh-out-loud romp from the beginning of class to the end of the day. David's activities in school include chewing gum, talking out of turn, and engaging in a food fight, causing his teacher to say over and over, "No, David!"

Craft ideas:

• Photocopy pictures from the book ahead of time. Children can color them in. Make sure to put a star on their work, as David's teacher did!
• Make a paper plate David face mask or a David puppet to play with.
