I am not sure why it appealed to me so much, but I loved it! It's a simple story of a girl growing up in relative poverty---her mother works as a maid, her father is gone and they struggle quite a bit. A lot of book is her wishes for her birthday---she wants striped ice cream, which is 3 flavor ice cream. Her mother is not sure there is going to be money for it. She does get her special birthday dinner---spagghetti with chicken in it---and a great surprise---her mother has made her a striped dress, striped like striped ice cream. There is just so much love in the family and so many little details that make the family come alive. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Reflect: this was a very good insight into how hard it can be sometimes to provide for people you love in trying times. I loved how it was very relatable, especially for a college student with multiple loans, and debt. It's almost like Christmas and how I have to somehow come up with something for my entire family.
Extension: this would be a good classroom book to help children understand how it's not as easy to provide for people when times are tough. Perhaps even if everyone works together good things can happen. ( )
