Description

From author-illustrator Hala Tahboub comes a silly story about how Mango and Nan make the most of a canceled ice-cream outing. Perfect for readers of all ages who love the warmth and whimsy of books like Saturday and Swashby and the Sea.

From the brilliant mind of Hala Tahboub comes a topsy-turvy tale of a boy and his grandmother. All they want is a summer ice-cream cone, but instead they get an all-over-the-town adventure. Silly and sweet, Mango and Nan find that sometimes canceled plans and disappointment are best served with sprinkles.
