No, David! (Spanish language version) Paperback – July 4, 2001

I got this for my nephew but I read it for years to my boys. It was one of their favorite books. They would laugh and gggle at David. If you have a David this will show him they are just a normal kid. I had three davids!

I was worried that this book would send the wrong messages (a book full of a kid misbehaving), but I trusted the other reviewers here, and they were right - this book sends the _right_ messages. Firstly, it lets your child feel both superior and empathetic - our child howls with gleeful recognition on each page of the 'no-nos' David is committing. Secondly, the fact that the child is scolded (not rewarded) for his mis-behavior, and that the book ends with love and a hug, reinforce parenting.

I finally was able to have one of my favorite books to read to children and teenagers in Spanish. I have had the English version for years but now I can share it in another language. There is a bit of David in every one of us.

The book don't have text, but my son love the graphics!

I didn't pay attention and purchased the Spanish version. Nothing wrong with that, except I don't speak Spanish. I'm keeping it to avoid the hassle and am re-ordering... just letting the rest of you know. :)Other than that, I'd give it 5 stars... so, technically, I'm rating Amazon's marketing.

Compre este libro para una niña de 6 años y le encantó el libro, incluso lo llevo al colegio y la maestra se los ha leído en clases porque tiene una moraleja muy interesante, no te arrepentirás! la calidad es muy buena!

This was my first story we'd read by this author, but it had a lot of positive reviews so we got it. I thought the child looked scarry and evil at times. The story was basically about telling the child no a lot. Are we not trying to say no less so kids don't say no to us!! How about redirecting kids by saying instead of pulling over the fish bowl, let's look at the fish, or play with toys in the tub, etc. I would not get it again and will probably give away the copy we bought!

My wife purchased this for her 1st grade bilingual class. The kids love it. They wrote papers after reading it relating to the story.
