PS
Shannon highlights the naughty things his mischievous title character does near Christmastime; this includes winter versions of previous David escapades (e.g., streaking down the street, now with hat, mittens, and boots). As usual, humorous illustrations fill in the gaps of the minimal text and keep readers wondering what David will do next--right up until the heartwarming final page.
