The Ice Cream King

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Julie Downing. Teddy can have anything he wants in the ice cream shop, "just for me." While deciding what to order, he envisions a pastel-hued ice cream land where he reigns as king. Singsongy text touts the joys of not sharing--until Teddy finds himself alone and decides that two spoons are better than one. The slight story is enhanced by creatively composed illustrations.
