Today at the library, it's one of our Family Fun Nights for Summer Reading. Tonight, the owner of my favorite local ice cream shop will be talking about small businesses, ice cream, and being a part of the community. And then, of course, we get to eat ice cream!
A picture book biography of Augustus Jackson and how his inventions help make ice cream today. From the streets of Philadelphia to the White House and back, he made ice cream for three presidents. But he wanted to make ice cream for everyone. He invented new ways to make ice cream faster, He created new flavors. He created ways to ship ice cream so other stores could sell his ice cream.
This is a fascinating book about the sweet dessert. The illustrations are charming. And there is an ice cream recipe included.
