Also, let's celebrate ice cream with reading a book that represents some facts about this amazing desert. Ice cream originated in the 17th century, so you could read a book set in a historical period (before 1960); Vanilla is the most popular flavor, but you can read a book that represents your favorite flavor; Since 87% of Americans have ice cream in their fridges, read a book where the character eats ice cream or there is a picture of ice cream on the cover; It can be painful and cause a medical condition if you eat ice cream too fast (Brain freeze), so read a book where the lead character needs medical attention; The bed and the bath are two interesting places people eat ice cream, so read a book with a delicious bedroom or bathroom scene.
