Story
Good-natured 10-year old Lucy is of the firm opinion that anyone can be comforted, providing they’re given the right kind of ice cream. Maliciousness, secretiveness, lies and deceit are foreign to her, until the day the ice-cream machine in her parents’ ice cream parlour breaks down, leaving the family facing disaster. But Lucy wouldn’t be Lucy, if she couldn’t find a solution. She comes up with a plan involving of all people Tristan, the class bully. As Lucy gradually turns into the diabolical »Lucyfer«, her best friend Rima starts to worry about her. Will Rima be able to uncover Lucy’s secret, is Tristan really the Bad Boy everyone thinks he is? And will Lucy be able to save her parents’ ice cream shop?
Age recommendation: 7 years and older
