About the Author
Julia Sarcone-Roach won a 2016 Ezra Jack Keats New Writer Honor Award for her breakout hit, The Bear Ate Your Sandwich. She also wrote and illustrated There Are No Bears in This Bakery and Subway Story and illustrated Excellent Ed by Stacy McAnulty.

Julia grew up in Arlington, Virginia, studied film and animation at the Rhode Island School of Design, and now lives in Brooklyn, New York, where she paints pictures, tames squirrels, and keeps her eyes peeled for bears.
Reviews
"I scream. You scream. We all scream for vanishing ice cream." --Kirkus Reviews

"Fans . . . are sure to lap up this work." --Publishers Weekly

"Sarcone-Roach has delivered another story centering an endearing unreliable narrator. . .[with] enough silly effervescence to make this tale a lively summer storytime pick." --Booklist

"As in The Bear Ate Your Sandwich, the humor in The Ice Cream Vanishes stems from the clash between what the narrator says and what readers see, leaving it to Sarcone-Roach's dynamic art in sunrise colors to tell the truth. The book is an ode to friendship: ultimately, Bear scores a treat while enabling clueless Squirrel ("Ta-da! The ice cream vanished!") to realize a dream." --Shelf Awareness

"A lively summer storytime pick....a visual narrative that is simultaneously comforting and dynamic." --The Bulletin

"This fun and quick read has all the elements to keep toddlers entertained." --School Library Journal
