Ellie and The Big Pink Ball

By: Wilson, Kenny

When little Ellie spots a Big Pink Ball at the store, it is love at first sight. She brings it home, but the ball is too big to fit through the door, so it finds a new home at Grammy and Papaw's house in Oklahoma. Every time Ellie visits, she and the Big Pink Ball share countless adventures, from sliding down the red plastic slide to playing catch over the house with Papaw.

As time passes, Ellie begins to notice something strange. Each visit, the Big Pink Ball looks a little smaller. Even her car seat feels tiny. Could her world really be shrinking, or is something else happening?

Inspired by a true story, Ellie and the Big Pink Ball beautifully captures the magic of childhood and the bittersweet realization that growing up changes the way we see the world.
