Description

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. (Description provided by publisher)
