"Why Ball Wouldn't Bounce" named to "Best Children's Books of All Time" and "Best New Children's Books to Read in 2020" Lists by BookAuthority.org.
"There once was a ball,
As some may recall,
Who spent most the day all alone,
Trying to hide the bounce inside
Without any friends of his own."
Ball so desperately wants to bounce like all the popular balls. He tries everything to fit in but nothing stops the others from laughing. Deflated, he rolls away to hide his bounce and his tears. But Ball soon meets the unlikeliest of new best friends who gives him a birds-eye view of what it really means to be unique and find your place in the world.
"Why Ball Wouldn't Bounce" is a tale about embracing and celebrating your unique qualities, not having to change who you are and how finding true friends isn't about having the same bounce but having the same desire to bounce.
Eventually, Ball is faced with an astonishing revelation that will change his life forever. Find out Why Ball Wouldn't Bounce and whether he stays hidden away or learns to bounce his own bounce proudly.
“They’re calling him the ‘next Mr. Rogers,’ Ron Roecker’s inspiring new book about self-acceptance is just what we need now!” Leeza Gibbons, Emmy-winner, NY Times Best-selling author.
“The serious message (about embracing your uniqueness) in ‘Why Ball Wouldn’t Bounce,’ is written in such a whimsical, sing-song way ...with bright, colorful illustrations that stand out on every page…that it can appeal to anyone…young kids, parents, teachers and even teens.” —LitPick Reviews (5 out of 5 stars)
"This delightful tale is a colorful, bright rhyming story that shows how magical it can be to rock your own bounce." Elaine Bent, Reedsy Discovery 5-Star “Must Read” Review. "This story is for children and adults and will resonate with anyone who has ever felt like they were different, they didn't fit in or they just couldn't bounce their unique bounce. It's a lesson about self-acceptance and loving one's uniqueness, and how important it is to celebrate similarities and not exploit differences."
'"Why Ball Wouldn’t Bounce' is making the world a better place.” Amazon Verified Purchase 5-Star Review

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
