Winner of the 2012 Randolph Caldecott Medal
This New York Times Bestseller and New York Times Best Illustrated Book relates
a story about love and loss as only Chris Rashcka can tell it. Any child who has
ever had a beloved toy break will relate to Daisy's anguish when her favorite
ball is destroyed by a bigger dog. In the tradition of his nearly wordless
picture book Yo! Yes?, Caldecott Medalist Chris Raschka explores in pictures the
joy and sadness that having a special toy can bring. Raschka's signature
swirling, impressionistic illustrations and his affectionate story will
particularly appeal to young dog lovers and teachers and parents
