Ice Cream Cone Synchronicity!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Half of what makes a picture book wonderful is, of course the pictures, and there are lots of books out there that can stand alone on illustrations. Ice-Cream Cones For Sale! can certainly rely on its beautiful, nostalgic monoprints but doesn't have to - it also tells the great and mysterious tale of the invention of the ice cream cone and the St. Louis World's Fair. Greenstein's author's note is a great insight into how fun, exciting, and unpredictable history can be as she details some of the twists and turns of her own research. A great book for reading and enjoying but also a great book to use for the start of a historical research project, to introduce the concept of synchronicity, and to inspire budding young inventors.
