"You can't imagine how big that wastebasket is," Raschka admits. It's not easy to draw the same dog, from different angles, page after page and make her recognizable. It's not Raschka's first Caldecott honor he won in 2006 for The Hello, Goodbye Window and was a Caldecott honoree in 1994 for Yo! Yes?Ī Ball for Daisy is Raschka's first wordless picture book, and it was "certainly a challenge," he tells NPR's Robert Siegel. How?Ī Ball for Daisy is a story of loss - a little dog loses her favorite red ball to a much larger dog - but now it's also a story about winning: On Monday, Chris Raschka's book won the American Library Association's Randolph Caldecott Medal for best illustrated story.
