Best friends Cake and Ice Cream love having fun, but when Ice Cream tries to get his way by being bossy and loud, he feels all alone.

Cake's best friend Ice Cream is really cool. He can lick everyone at dodgeball. Together, Cake and Ice Cream love having fun and going to parties!

But when Ice Cream wants something, he wants it right now. And if he doesn't get his way, he has a meltdown. His bossy behavior starts to give everyone a brain freeze. Eventually Ice Cream has an important realization…and becomes his sweet, soft self again!

Includes a Note to Parents, Caregivers, and Educators with more information about bossy behavior, and strategies to help guide children to behave assertively while still being mindful of others’ feelings.
