The Little Ice Cream Jeep
Ellie and her brother Bridger run an ice cream truck in Great Falls, Montana. This summer, they face a big challenge that puts their business and their ability to help others at risk. Will they find a way to overcome the obstacles and continue spreading joy and charity?
Ellie and her brother Bridger loved running their ice cream truck every summer in Great Falls, Montana. One sunny morning, they discovered that their freezer had broken down, melting all their ice cream. Without a freezer, they couldn't sell any ice cream. Ellie felt a deep sense of worry. They needed to fix the freezer quickly or their summer plans would melt away.
Ellie and Bridger decided to ask their neighbors for help. They visited Mr. Jenkins, who was good with machines. But Mr. Jenkins was out of town for the week. Ellie sighed, feeling a bit defeated. They needed another plan to fix the freezer.
Next, they went to the local repair shop, but the repairman said he couldn't come until next week. Ellie started to lose hope. They tried calling other repair shops, but everyone was too busy. Bridger tried to cheer Ellie up, but she felt the weight of the problem growing heavier.
Ellie sat on the curb, feeling like giving up. Without the ice cream truck, they couldn't make any money or bring smiles to the kids in their neighborhood. Tears filled her eyes. Bridger sat next to her and put his arm around her shoulders. She wondered if they should just close the truck for the summer.
Just then, Mrs. Thompson, their kind neighbor, walked by and noticed their sad faces. She listened to their problem and had an idea. - Why not ask the community center if they have a spare freezer? she suggested. Ellie and Bridger looked at each other with renewed hope. They decided to give it a try.
At the community center, Mr. Rivera welcomed them warmly. - Of course, we have a spare freezer you can borrow! he said with a smile. Ellie and Bridger couldn't believe their luck. They quickly transferred their ice cream to the new freezer. The ice cream truck was back in business, and they could continue spreading joy and charity in Great Falls.
