David Goes to School -- picture book 4

  
Author/Illustrator: David Shannon
Genre: Realistic Fiction  
Originally Published by: blue Sky Press, 1999
Themes: school behavior 
Primary Character: David

This is the sequel to the beloved book "No, David".  In this story David goes to school and instead of hearing No from his mom all day it is his teacher. This illustrations are key to this story. They show David doing everything from being tardy to writing on his desk. In the end David finally gets a good job from his teacher and heads home. This would be a great story to show children that even though they make not-so-good decisions in the end they are still loved and can make the right decisions. Considering children from preschool to early elementary grades would easily relate to David, they would enjoy this book best.
