Stand Straight, Ella Kate
Stand Straight, Ella Kate | Kate Klise
1 post | 1 read
Ella Kate Ewing was born in 1872. She started out small, but she just kept on growing. Soon she was too tall for her desk at school, too tall for her bed at home, too tall to fit anywhere. Ella Kate was a real-life giant, but she refused to hide herself away. Instead, she used her unusual height to achieve her equally large dreams. The masterful Klise sisters deliver a touching and inspiring true story about a strong-minded girl who finally embraced her differences. It?s the perfect book for every child who has ever felt like an outsider.

#BeautifulWords Day 19: Determined to shield Ella from a world that despises, taunts, and ridicules that which it does not understand, her parents decided to let her remain home after an #untoward incident during their 4th of July Celebration. Amidst the taunting and the humiliation, Ella‘s parents would constantly remind her to “Stand Straight, Ella Kate.” My review of this moving picturebook biography: https://wp.me/pDlzr-2MG
