Ellie Mae Dreams Big!

The New York Times best-selling novelist Kristina McMorris makes her picture book debut with the winning story of a girl tackling the all-important question, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

The sister duo of New York Times best-selling novelist Kristina McMorris and award-winning artist Amanda Yoshida makes their collaborative debut with a delightful story of a girl whose big dreams are far from ordinary. "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

At the teacher's all-important question, Ellie Mae's mind swirls with ideas. An astronaut or a chef? Better yet, why not an astronaut-chef? Since the moon is made of cheese, her galactic grilled-cheese sandwiches could be known throughout the universe! Or . . . she could be a 'ballerina-painter,' creating masterpieces while leaping across the stage.

In the end, there are so many options, Ellie Mae fears she can't possibly pick-until the answer dawns on her. What she chooses will surprise her classmates as much as the reader!
