What is Grow up, David! about?
David wants to be just like his older brother, so he follows him everywhere, copies everything he does and finds plenty of ways to get noticed. His brother is not always impressed, and David’s antics soon become irritating. But when David takes a tumble while playing, his brother’s annoyance disappears. Suddenly, being a big brother means helping, comforting and making sure David is all right. A lively story about sibling rivalry, family affection and the special bond between brothers.
