Ellie has a secret / by Amelia Bothe.

Bothe, Amelia, ( author,, illustrator.).

Summary:

A gorgeously illustrated social-emotional picture book debut about releasing the secrets that weigh us down, featuring a mysterious creature who's not as it first seems--perfect for fans of the stunning characters and worlds by David Wiesner, the Fan Brothers, and Aaron Becker. Pure magic! Ellie would never dream of taking something from her classroom without asking her teacher first. But the shell she finds during recess is particularly peculiar--and has a mysterious critter living inside it! Surprising even herself, she pops it in her pocket as a little secret when no one is looking. It's not long before the creature outgrows the shell and starts to weigh Ellie down. Does Ellie have a Secret or does the Secret have her? This spectacular debut by author-illustrator Amelia Bothe explores the delights and perils of keeping secrets as well as the rewards of being honest.
