David L. Read is one of the supporting heroes in the Arthur books and the cartoon series on PBS Kids. 

Physical appearance[]

David, like the rest of his family, is an anthropomorphic aardvark with a light brown complexion. Usually, he wears a light blue top with dark blue borders, and brown corduroy pants and loafers. In the earliest Arthur books, he was bald, but in later releases he was shown with brown clumps of hair, which were simply shown as black lines in the cartoon series.

Personality[]

David is a not-so-strict parents to his children compared to his wife Jane, but he tends to urge Arthur and D.W. to try various exotic foods that he's cooked, usually to their disgust, although David himself is equally disgusted at their preference for junk food. Sometimes, he can be as firm with his children as Jane is, although that's because he wants them to do their best in life.
