Somehow the icon for the AppStore has disappeared on my iPad. Is there someway to restore it without restoring to factory settings and loosing all my games, music, and most important pictures?

The App Store cannot be deleted, but it can be turned off in Settings. If you are still on iOS 10 go to Settings > Restrictions and turn the app store back on.
