The Candymakers by Wendy Mass
Four children have been chosen to compete in a national competition to find the tastiest confection in the country. Who will invent a candy more delicious than the Oozing Crunchorama or the Neon Lightning Chew?Logan, the Candymaker's son, who can detect the color of chocolate by touch alone?
Miles, the boy who is allergic to merry-go-rounds and the color pink?
Daisy, the cheerful girl who can lift a fifty-pound lump of taffy like it's a feather?
Or Philip, the suit-and-tie wearing boy who's always scribbling in a secret notebook?
This sweet and cleverly crafted story, told from each contestant's perspective, is filled with mystery, friendship, and juicy revelations.
Wendy Mass is the author of A Mango-Shaped Space, Leap Day, Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life, Heaven Looks a Much Like the Mall, and Every Soul a Star, which won the ALA Schneider Family Award. Wendy, her husband, and their twin daughters and son live in Sparta, New Jersey.
