Review:

STARRED REVIEW: “Like Alligator Pie, Garbage Delight, and Jelly Belly, this book will be loved for its rhythm, fun, and juxtaposition of the strange and the everyday.” (Quill & Quire)

“Lee’s use of words and images seem part of a real child’s world, and McPhail’s very realistically drawn subjects dance, think, and dream. Whether they are from around the block or around the world, children everywhere will love visiting The Ice Cream Store.” (School Library Journal)
