Chris Raschka is a multi-award winning author/illustrator of over 30 books for children. Named “one of the most original illustrators at work today” by Publishers Weekly, Raschka has been the recipient of two Caldecott Medals (for The Hello, Goodbye Window and the recent A Ball for Daisy) as well as a Caldecott Honor Award for the book Yo? Yes! A graduate of St. Olaf College in Minnesota, Chris had set his eyes on a career in medicine before realizing that art is where his heart was at. Shortly after his realization, he moved to New York City where he saw his dream of illustrating children’s books come to fruition.
Chris’s wordless picture book, "A Ball for Daisy," received the 2012 Caldecott Medal and conveys the story of a small dog’s heartbreak over the loss of a beloved toy, a universal theme that all small children and their parents have dealt with at some point in their own lives. The book was widely embraced by reviewers and readers alike, and was named one of the 10 Best Illustrated Books of 2011 by The New York Times.
