Little Ellie the elephant is the only kid at a grown-up party. No one is paying any attention to poor Ellie, and she can't reach the food! Why must everything be for big people?
Then to Ellie's surprise, she discovers a little chef mouse inside a hole in the wall, and he's filming a cooking show! Ellie can see that his sharp senses are key ingredients for a successful tiny pie. Will this be the perfect snack that's just her size?
As an added treat, Alice Waters has contributed a delicious tiny apple pie recipe perfect for little hands (and big appetites)!

Mark Bailey is an author and Emmy-nominated screenwriter. His previous books include American Hollow and Hemingway & Bailey's Bartending Guide to Great American Writers. This is Bailey's first book for children. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife and three children.
PreS-Gr 1-Little Ellie is sad because she is not allowed to be a part of the grown-up party her parents are hosting. When her tummy starts rumbling and no one will pay attention, the young elephant takes matters into her own hands and discovers a whole other world behind the hole in her kitchen wall. She stumbles upon a cooking show hosted by mice and learns to make Tiny Pie. More importantly, however, she learns that even small hands, noses, mouths, and hearts can make a difference. This beautifully illustrated picture book is delightful. Readers will linger over the vibrant paintings that fill each page to soak in every detail, particularly the spread in which the many mice take over Ellie's kitchen, baking, eating, and having a grand party. The tiny creatures speak in rhyme, a fun feature for emergent readers. The appended recipe for Tiny Apple Pies is the icing on the cake.-Amy Shepherd, St. Anne's Episcopal School, Middleton, DEα(c) Copyright 2013.
