Ann Love and Jane Drake<br />
Illustrated by Claudia Dávila<br />
Through time and across continents, stories of sweets and their<br />
inventors intrigue and entertain us. Learn about primal sweets –<br />
from honey, sweet milk, and nuts to sugar candy, chocolate, and<br />
“sweet” stories of success.<br />
Sweet! The Delicious Story of Candy takes us through history from<br />
4,000 B.C., when islanders in Papua New Guinea cut sugarcane<br />
for its sap, and 2,600 B.C., when the first-known beekeepers<br />
produced honey to embalm the dead, to 500 A.D., when the<br />
Chinese made pear and plum syrups from unripe fruit, and all<br />
the way through to the world’s first chocoholics and modern-day<br />
candy factories.<br />
From cravings to the scoop on ice cream, Ann Love and Jane<br />
Drake present a comprehensive and irresistible story of candy<br />
through the ages, complemented by a detailed timeline and<br />
playful illustrations from artist Claudia Dávila.<br />
