What is The Boy who Switched Off the Sun about?

Marcel absolutely loves ice cream, but the hot sunshine keeps turning his favourite treat into a sticky puddle. He tries eating it quickly, but gets brain freeze, and even hides in the dark, where he feels frightened. Then Marcel has a brilliant idea: he will travel to the sun and switch it off! But when darkness spreads across the Earth, Marcel discovers that his clever plan has caused a terrible problem. Can he put things right before it is too late?
