Camp Sundae

Camp Sundae is a whimsical, heartwarming story that helps children navigate the big feelings that come with meeting new people, trying new things, and stepping into unfamiliar adventures. Through gentle humor and colorful storytelling, it explores self-esteem, insecurity, confidence, mistake-making, and the power of acceptance. Meet Bean, a young scoop of vanilla ice cream heading to day camp for the very first time. He hopes the other little scoops will think he’s cool, but each new activity brings challenges—and a few embarrassing mistakes. Worried he won’t fit in, Bean tries changing his flavor and color again and again, only to discover that true confidence comes not from being someone else, but from being believed in and believing in himself. With the kindness of a new friend, Bean learns that mistakes are okay and that he never needs to change who he is to shine. Written and illustrated by former second-grade teacher Julie C. Guyette, this delightful picture book is filled with charming, vibrant artwork and a playful narrative that keeps young readers engaged from start to finish. Bean’s journey shows children how resilience, courage, and kindness help us grow—especially when we try something new. Camp Sundae is a perfect addition to any home library, classroom, or counseling space. Its uplifting message celebrates individuality and diversity, while the ice-cream–themed humor makes the story irresistibly fun. With included questions and activities to deepen understanding, this book is ideal for read-alouds that promote growth mindset, build self-confidence, and spark meaningful conversations. Discover a sweet story that encourages every child to believe in themselves—exactly as they are.
