Customer Reviews

ELLA ... so happy to add to my Bill Peet collection.

Read Bill Peet books to my children and now collecting copies to read to my grandchildren. I can read these books again and again! Love the artistry of each and every character. Ella is another delightful masterpiece. I just feel a very strong connection to Bill Peet books❣️

Ella the Elephant

My kids loved this book and now my grandchildren agree. Can't go wrong with anything by Bill Peet.

Bill Peet is fantastic!

I grew up on Bill Peet books and I am surprised that I don't hear much about them anymore. I think they are all wonderful. My favorites are: Ella, Buford the Little Bighorn, and The Wump World. They are entertaining stories with wonderful underlying lessons!!

Superior

The best lesson in humility a child (or adult) can have. The rhyming text makes the reading fun. This is my favorite of all the Bill Peet books.

Excellent!

I can't believe no one has reviewed this book yet. I was flipping through the Bill Peat collection just because Christmas is drawing near and these books made such a huge impact on my childhood I wanted to now share them with my son. Ella is the classic tale of the underdog making good in the end and I would HIGHLY recommend it (or ANY Bill Peat book) for anyone who enjoys sharing stories of substance with their children.
