Ellery’s Magic Bicycle is a playful story about a young girl who finds a magical purple bicycle that takes her on many adventures. As Ellery grows, so does her magical bicycle—the pair experience many life lessons together.

At this moment, Ellery remembers the joy her magical purple bicycle brings her.
Author Maria Monte has created a sweet story where readers can watch Ellery grow from childhood to adulthood.
