Without our ice-lollies we are nothing " says an old stick. But new stick wants to BE something & into the minds of all the old sticks he plants dreams...maybe they can be something too. What about Rosie & her dreams that night? She dreams of helping her parents pay the bills. & so at the stroke of midnight magic & dreams collide & a HORSE gallops out of the cigar box! His name is Stickerino. " Where to?" he asks Rosie. " Anywhere with treasure!" she answers & hops on its back. Then begins an adventure like no other...ice-lolly mountains by the sea caskets of gold & pirates foiled by a stickling ice-cream van...
