(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Claudia Dávila. Beginning with the biological appeal of sweets, this book moves into subdivided sections on "primal sweets," "sugar candy," chocolate, and "candy magic." The lively prose presents solid facts, and cartoon illustrations further enliven the text. A running timeline gives noteworthy international candy-related events and discoveries from 6000 BCE to 2006 CE. Although references are missing, an authors' note describes Love and Drake's research.
