Happy Birthday, David!!


I LOVE the David books.  They are so funny. 

October 5th is David's Birthday! Well, not the David in the books, but the David that wrote them. 
His name is David Shannon.


Did you know he has written a lot of other really great books?  Stop by the library and find one today! Until then, enjoy the hotspots and learn more about both Davids!
