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.
