Chocolate Fever
by Robert Kimmel Smith
.
This was a fun book to read, and had lots of illustrations which we all enjoyed and which make story time easier for Christopher. The blurb on the back cover is great, so I'll just quote from that:
.
"Henry loves chocolate so much, it practically runs through his veins. Chocolate cake, chocolate cereal, chocolate syrup, chocolate milk, and chocolate cookies - and that's just breakfast! Still, it comes as a shock when he suddenly breaks out in chocolately brown spots and is diagnosed with... Chocolate Fever. Rather than be poked and prodded by doctors, Henry runs away, starting the adventure of a lifetime. But at the end of it all, the question remains: Is there a cure for Chocolate Fever?"

Christopher picked this out at random and it turned out to be really cute. You should've seen my boys giggling at this! Even daddy liked it.

I'm sure you've already heard about this great classic. (If you haven't, put it on your library list!) I loved this book as a kid and I still love it. We now have our own copy because the Friends of the Library was selling it for 25 cents!!

It's funny how I have forgotten so many books that I read when I was young. Like Chocolate Fever and Miss Nelson is Missing. I loved those... and now I wonder what else did I forget about.
I want one of those candles... I need good smells in my house since the throw up smells like campfires and dirt. :)
Riley just read Chocolate Fever in school. I don't think I've ever read it though. I totally remember Miss Nelson is Missing--I think its such a clever picture book. I'd love to hear more of your read-a-loud favorites. We are on the last few pages of Little House in the Big Woods and then we are starting Bridge to Terabithia! Yeah!!
