Ellie the electric car charges up before every journey. She moves quietly along the road and loves visiting new places. Today, Ellie is driving to the library to return a stack of storybooks. Give her an energetic new design with your favorite colors!
Ellie is a tiny car with an important errand: returning a stack of storybooks to the library. Because she is electric, she can travel quietly along the road after charging up. Perhaps the books are about dragons, dinosaurs, or faraway planets. Her small size makes her look extra cute and ready for town adventures. Which book do you think Ellie would choose to borrow next?
Color Ellie in cheerful lime green, sunny yellow, coral pink, or electric blue. Make her windows a soft blue, and use dark gray or black for the tires. A little charging detail could be yellow like a lightning bolt, if you would like to add one. For a library-day scene, draw brown book covers, green trees, or a red return box around her.
Electric cars use rechargeable batteries to power an electric motor. They can be charged at home or at special charging stations. Electric motors are usually much quieter than gasoline engines, which is why Ellie may make only a gentle whirring sound. Batteries store energy, much like a toy that works after you put fresh batteries inside. Many kinds of vehicles can use electricity.
