The Candymakers and the Great Chocolate Chase |
Wendy Mass won the Schneider Family Book Award for her first young readers' novel, A Mango-Shaped Space, about a girl with the fascinating condition synesthesia. In Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life, a boy embarks on a life-changing journey. In Every Soul a Star, three very different kids are brought together by a solar eclipse; and in The Candymakers, four kids enter the contest of a lifetime. The Twice Upon a Time series puts a twist on familiar fairy tales, and the Willow Falls books (beginning with 11 Birthdays) add a dash of magic into a small town. Wendy lives in New Jersey.

Bring on book two! After all the adventures of book one, how could this book not be as fun and entertaining? I felt it definitely lived up to book one and possibly surpassed the excitement.
The one problem I saw with the book is the intimidating size. My nine year old won't think twice about picking up a 300+ page book on dragons, but I've yet to get her to read The Candymakers nor The Candymakers and the Great Chocolate Chase. Because we read about the adventures from each child's prospective, the book is almost 550 pages. I have to admit, even I thought twice about reading the book when I saw the size. Let's face it, that's a lot to commit to when you're not sure if you'll enjoy it. Despite the size, the book is entertaining. My daughter enjoyed everything I told her about the book and begged me to share more. Perhaps there's hope she'll read it after all.
One thing I really enjoyed about the book was the diversity of the children and the perspectives their differences brought to the book. The kids are white, Asian, rich, poor, handicap, absent parents, helicopter parents, dead parent, and yet friends who work together.
I would recommend this book to anyone who has kids who love to read and they're not afraid to tackle big books. Or perhaps to anyone who just likes to read a good kid centered book.
*This book was initially given to me by NetGalley for an honest review, but the book was archived before I could download it. I pre-ordered the book and read it once it was published.
This book by Wendy Mass is filled with adventure, anticipation, and amazing detail. If you are in middle school and love a great mystery I would recommend this book.
This is the 2nd book, so read "The Candymakers" first (if it seems long at 400+ pages, don't worry it's a page-turner). The characters are amazing, funny and become very real. I'm not even going to write anything about the plot because I would hate to give anything away. Wendy Mass is our daughters' (ages 9 and 12) new favorite author, they zip through her books and they are a great read for adults too.
My daughter (10 yr old) really enjoyed this book. While it was fairly long she enjoyed it throughly and finished it in less than a week
Wendy Mass does not disappoint to the sequel to the known and loved book, The Candymakers. An adventure is around the corner!
