what was that book where the kid ate so much chocolate that he got bumps? they were like chocolate chicken pox or sumthing.. any way, i don't remember the name, but that book was great...
I remember the book you're talking about...Choclate Touch. A boy who ate so much choclate he was taught a lesson by recieving a coin that supposedly entitled him to a free piece of choclate. Once he ate the choclate everything he ate became choclate, even his toothpaste. I remember in one chapter he kisses his mom and she turns into choclate.
Like King Midas and his golden touch.
anybody ever watch wishbone??? when the dog would act out all these good books. somehow the midas one always stuck with me and when you said this it immediately reminded me of this.
Oh yes, a BIG after school favorite. WAAAAAAY better than cliff notes.
exactly i didn't even really read tale of two cities cuz that one kept repeating when i was supposed to read it so i just watched it a bunch of times and got an A.
I read..most of that. Ok, maybe part of it. Sydney Carton rules!
yeah i started to read it but everytime i tried i would get into that mode where i'm not really understanding the words just reading them and then i had no clue what i just read.
I do that a lot too. But I think I read all of the first part, half of the second and the last page of the book.
Chocolate Touch or was its Chocolate Fever?
They're two different books, in Chocolate Fever the protagonist gets an illness which causes choclate bumps to appear all over his body. In chocolate touch the protagonist over indulges in choclate and gets a midas like choclate touch. Both are cute, the latter is my favorite.
