A little brother who won’t take “you’re too little” for an answer

David’s attempts to get his older brother’s attention drive this humorous picture-book story. The source description highlights familiar sibling friction through specific mischief: David eats Halloween candy, makes a bathroom mess, and follows his brother up to the tree house. His antics keep the focus on the everyday boundary-testing and curiosity associated with being a younger sibling, with his brother’s approval as the stated goal. Part of David Shannon’s series featuring the character first introduced in *No, David!*, the book centers on a recognizable family dynamic for young children.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy humorous stories about sibling mischief.
  • Families seeking a picture book about younger-sibling antics and everyday boundary-testing.
  • Fans of David Shannon’s David character and the *No, David!* books.

Book overview

Laugh-aloud humor abounds when David can't resist bugging his big brother. In this funny romp, David careens from one mischievous antic to the next... until he finally wins his brother's approval.

 

Little-brother antics have never been so endearing -- or true to life! David Shannon's beloved character in his bestselling book No, David! captures the attention and hearts of young children as few characters can. Readers relish David's exuberance, defiance, and wildly energetic curiosity, and when there's trouble, you can bet "David did it!" Now he's taunting his older brother by eating his Halloween candy, making a bathroom mess, and following him up the tree house. "You're too little!" won't stop David's tricks in this all-time "read it again" favorite. With millions of copies in print and four sequels, No, David! hit the ground running in 1998 and was a Caldecott Honor Book, a New York Times Best Illustrated Book, and a classic for 20 years. Based on a book the author wrote and illustrated when he was five, David captures the timeless no-no's familiar to every child. Grow Up, David! is nothing short of exhilarating.
