The Book of ELLE by Jocelynn Mitchell and illus. by Alicia Mitchell.

Teen author Jocelynn Mitchell with illustrations by Alicia Mitchell has crafted a delightful book sure to please parents and young readers. 

The cute dog has one mission in life, "I'm Ellie, and I'm the best worst dog ever! I'm awesome at everything, and in this book, I'm going to teach you my secrets so you can be awesome like me."

The adventures and journey will keep readers engaged and finishing it will lead to moving on to book 2! All about a pup named Piper!

A word from the author Jocelynn Mitchell:

"Hello! My name is Jocelynn and I am so glad you found The Book of Ellie! Now, I might be a bit biased, but if I had to guess this book will bring loads of smiles and laughter to its readers, no matter what age! I am currently 13, but have been working on The Book of Ellie since I was 11. I love to read and write, and it has always been a dream of mine to publish a book one day! When my pug, Ellie, was brought home I knew immediately that she would make an amazing main character in my book. Everything you see in the book are events that really have happened! Ellie has been quite the challenge when it comes to training and truly has a mind of her own, but that makes for a great story, and I could not be happier to call her my dog! I currently live in the great state of Texas and aside from writing I love to cook, swim, and be with my friends! I hope you enjoy the book and look out because I can assure you there is more to come!" 



Note: A very proud Oklahoma relatives shared the book with me and I highly recommend it for personal home collections and for classroom or library collections. Talented young authors - and artists - need to be encouraged!
