A Ball For Daisy
This past week, I went to Willard Library to pick up a children’s book “A Ball For Daisty” by Chris Raschka.
This book just won the American Library Association's 2012 Caldecott award for the most distinguished American picture book for children.
When I got the book, I was expecting a cute story about a dog and her ball. It is an endearing story but, the book is beyond cute. The book is all illustrated with no words but the story is well told. Each page is filled with emotion and love. Since the book has no words, it gives the storyteller liberty to add to the story.
I love this book but, more importantly my children love this book. Since Willard Library has plenty of copies, I suggest you take the opportunity to treat yourself and your children to a delightful story.
