David is a mischievous child who makes excuses for everything. He always says it is not his fault. When he trips on a skateboard, he says he didn't mean to do it. He even forgot to put on his pants before he walked to school. He does anything from making funny faces in school pictures to saying that his dog ate his homework. David like most children makes excuses, so he doesn't get in trouble.
I would read this book to kindergarten students for enjoyment. It is a wonderful book, and the things that David does make me laugh. It is mostly pictures and very little words. This is great for beginning readers like kindergartners.
