If you want to map an existing picture to a sphere, I think that map_type 2
(cylindrical) will give you more of the result you want.

This is untested:

sphere {
    0, 1
    pigment {
        image_map {sys "YourKid.bmp" map_type 2}
        translate <0,-0.5,0>
        scale <1,2,1>
    } // end pigment
} // end sphere
