Oh, Wow! This is a sweet book with a little bit of history. My grandson really enjoys the colorfully ice cream truck pictures. After reading the book we enjoy sing Scoop's song together.

The classic illustrations perfectly match the retro vibe of this book as Scoop, an old-fashioned ice-cream truck, is finding there may not be room for him with all larger variety of offerings from the newer trucks. I'd say it's an unlikely friendhsip story between a girl and an ice-cream truck, but, really, is there a better BFF to have than an ice-cream truck?! The information in the back about the first ice-cream trucks is interesting--something I didn't know--and adds an educational element to a fun, heartwarming story.

Wow! Ever since The LITTLE BLUE TRUCK picture books came out, I’ve been hoping for another little truck picture book for kids, and SCOOP THE ICE CREAM TRUCK is the (ice) cream of the crop—with a red cherry on the top! I especially like this lovely story, because the main character, Scoop, befriends a young girl, hence more of a great read to share with my young granddaughters. My granddaughters, ages 3 and 6, both love trucks, as well as ice cream. Who doesn’t?! Scoop is an old ice cream truck who doesn’t quite fit into these modern times with all the bigger, fancier specialty ice cream trucks. He’s resting on a side street when BOING BOING he meets Spunky. They become pals, but this relationship is threatened when those fancier, more modern trucks start showing up. In an effort to better compete with the other trucks, Scoop strives to change—to make himself bigger, fancier and offer way more ice cream flavors. He tries and fails, and tries again, which ultimately makes his new friend happy while having his own dreams come true! 5 stars for sure!
