Children's Literature
- Ken Marantz and Sylvia Marantz
Daisy, the appealing and irrepressible pooch, returns in an exciting, almost wordless new adventure. When her mistress tosses a ball and says, "Go get it, Daisy!" Daisy has it in her mouth on the next double page. But there, as well, is a squirrel, and Daisy is off on the chase. In panoramas across the double pages, Daisy races. But when she trees the squirrel, she realizes she is lost. Her mistress calls her from far away, then searches through the woods as Daisy does likewise. Finally Daisy's howls bring about the exuberant happy ending. Raschka uses ink, watercolor paints, and gouache sparingly and impressionistically to create this animated adventure of a chase through the woods.
