Small Walt meets The Last Stop on Market Street in this picture book about a warmhearted elevator that's part matchmaker, part friend, and all sweetness.

Every day, Ellie the elevator works tirelessly to make the residents of her building happy. She loves everyone who lives in her building--even the dogs with muddy paws and the over-enthusiastic button-pushers. But Ellie has a soft spot for Thea, who bounces through Ellie's doors with a cheerful grin every day. After Thea's best friend moves away, Ellie rarely sees Thea smile anymore. Ellie wants to cheer Thea up...but what can an elevator do to help? Leave it to Ellie to make Thea's world better.
