Ice Boy by David Ezra Stein

Ice Boy by David Ezra Stein

An ice cube in search of adventure stars in a comical (and very cool) tale of transformation from Caldecott Honoree David Ezra Stein.

Ice Boy has a normal life. He likes goofing around with his siblings ("Don't lick your brother!"). He listens when his parents tell him that being chosen to cool someone's drink or be a cold compress is the best thing that can happen to an ice cube. But Ice Boy wants more. So even though his parents tell him never to go outside, and even though his doctor tells him never to go in the sun, Ice Boy decides to head for the beach, where he rolls right into the water ("Best day ever!"). But suddenly his edges begin to blur. . . . From the creator of the best-selling Interrupting Chicken comes an offbeat and funny story of daring to venture into the unknown, whatever form it may take.

David Ezra Stein is the author and illustrator of numerous children's books. Is David going to win? Is he sure he's right? Is the author attempting to recreate this enchantment? David Ezra Stein lives in New York's Kew Garden.

David Ezra Stein is the author-illustrator of several children's books, including Leaves, which received the Ezra Jack Keats New Writer Award. I'll never forget sitting in a loved one's lap and having a whole world open up in front of me, he recalls, a world brought to life by the visuals and the grown-up's speech. The sense of awe is something I'd like to re-create in my own writings. David Ezra Stein is a New Yorker who lives in Kew Garden.
