The Ice Cream Vanishes
Squirrel is an expert at making acorns disappear. But making some ice cream vanish?! "I put it right there! On that hot rock in the sun!" When Squirrel returns with Bear and finds the ice cream gone, they know there is only one explanation--Squirrel is a magician!
Determined to replicate this feat, Squirrel and Bear follow the ice cream truck...and put on a show every forest animal will remember forever.
With a text that begs to be read aloud and lush paintings filled with humor, Julia Sarcone-Roach creates magical mayhem and a story so delicious, kids will be begging for second helpings.

Praise for this book
"Fans . . . are sure to lap up this work." --Publishers Weekly
"Sarcone-Roach has delivered another story centering an endearing unreliable narrator. . .[with] enough silly effervescence to make this tale a lively summer storytime pick." --Booklist
"As in The Bear Ate Your Sandwich, the humor in The Ice Cream Vanishes stems from the clash between what the narrator says and what readers see, leaving it to Sarcone-Roach's dynamic art in sunrise colors to tell the truth. The book is an ode to friendship: ultimately, Bear scores a treat while enabling clueless Squirrel ("Ta-da! The ice cream vanished!") to realize a dream." --Shelf Awareness
"A lively summer storytime pick....a visual narrative that is simultaneously comforting and dynamic." --The Bulletin
"This fun and quick read has all the elements to keep toddlers entertained." --School Library Journal
