This highly attractive introduction to a subject that is of immediate interest to young children looks at the variety of chocolate and follows the story from the growing of the cocoa beans to the final product. In a nearly square format, the book is easily handled by children and is clearly and stunningly illustrated with bright colour photographs. It contains contents, a combined index and glossary, and captions to provide experience of the organisational features of non-fiction. It has also been checked by literacy and technical consultants.
