Talk about Pavlovian! Watch an ice-cream truck pull up ringing its bell, and every child in the neighborhood comes running. Enter THE ICE CREAM TRUCK, the latest Mini Wheels Book and newest member of the intricately die-cut and deliciously chunky Mini House and Mini Wheels Books series that has over 2.5 million copies in print.<br><br>So lively, so colorful, so much fun to hold and play with, to open its doors or send wheeling across the room, THE ICE CREAM TRUCK is a natural companion to the <i>Mini School Bus</i>, <i>Mini Fire Truck</i>, and <i>Mini Express</i> (collect them all!). It's the summer vehicle that all kids wait for—and this one, staffed by a merry group of chef's-hat-wearing penguins, comes packed with treats and rhymes and, just like a real ice-cream truck, brings lots of smiles wherever it goes. There's the ring-aling-a-ling and the customers arriving at breakneck speed, the cones—<i>One scoop, two scoop, three scoop, four!</i>—the pops, plus floats, sundaes, malteds, and shakes. Not to mention a super-secret treat machine that would make Willy Wonka proud.<br><br>A book, a toy, a vehicle—and best of all, the ice-cream truck that comes all year long!
