And, lo, and behold, there was a famine throughout the land And Ice Cream was nowhere to be found The people cried and prayed for Ice Cream But it couldn't be found in any freezer All they could do was remember Until they all forgot, except one His name was Grandpa This is a full dialog book. That means that the main part of the book is pure conversation. There are for speakers in this book - Young Bobby, Bobby's Grandpa, Bobby's mom, and a doctor. Grandpa loves telling Bobby about Ice Cream. But he's not supposed to, because supposedly there never was such a thing. Bobby's Mom raises Bobby and takes care of Grandpa all by herself (well, Bobby helps). She seems obsessed with making Brownies, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Read this book, remember all that you love about Ice Cream, and find out why it has disappeared in this version of the world. Also enjoy all the scheming by Grandpa and Bobby.
