Brief Summary: A
Ball for Daisy is a wordless picture book about a dog named Daisy and her new
toy ball. She takes the ball to the park
with her and shares it with a friend but they bite and pop the ball. Daisy is very sad until the next day at the
park when her friend brings her a new ball to play with.
Evaluation Statement:
A Ball for Daisy is a cute, short story that would be entertaining for
children to read. It has pretty
watercolor illustrations that are full of color. A Ball for Daisy shows the need to handle
other people’s toys carefully and to apologize when you hurt another’s
feelings.
I have never heard of this book before! It sounds like it has great pictures and has a great way to tie in social and emotional situations for children.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a really cute book, especially with the illustration of the dog.
