Even as a toddler, David was a challenge to his parents. Introduces preschoolers to the concept of the five senses as Baby David begins to explore the world around him by banging on drums, smelling strange scents, and petting the dog in order to experience things in his own special way. Very simple text presents scenes with David which give examples of the five senses. Hey! What's that smell?! Join David as he discovers the five senses: touch, hear, see, smell, and taste. From petting the dog to banging on a drum, David knows how to have a good time. But he also knows that there's nothing better than playing a game with Mama at the end of a busy and exciting day. With the same irresistible humor and vibrant style as his award-winning No, David! books, David Shannon takes us back to the "early years" of his most beloved character. Perfect for beginning readers as well as for the youngest children!
