Bookroo's summary

Teddy stumbles into a magical kingdom after donning a paper crown at a new ice cream shop. Here, endless ice cream awaits, but is there more to this sweet paradise? As Teddy indulges, he must uncover the secrets of this enchanting realm. Will he find a way back, or is he destined to stay in this sugary wonderland forever? Dive into a world where every scoop holds a mystery and every flavor a new adventure.

"Inside my ice cream castle, I slide down chocolate halls, I pick out rainbow sprinkles, from mint-chip ice cream walls."
