This award-winning picture book by Chris Raschka is a simple story about a dog and her bright rubber ball. It captures, however, the universal experience of what it’s like to lose something you love and the special kindnesses that friendship can bring. The illustrations intuitively capture the hangdog feeling of dejection when Daisy loses her ball. When she unexpectedly receives a new one, the movement of thumping tail and a wide-mouthed grin are brilliantly depicted. The reader can’t help but smile too! Suitable for all ages and especially good for dog lovers.
