The book The Chocolate Touch was written and illustrated by: Patrick Skene Catling. The book was really neat. John was a good boy until he found a strange coin on the ground. With the coin he bought a box of chocolates, but when he got home, to his surprise, the box only had one piece of chocolate!! But when John ate the chocolate, every thing he put in his mouth turned into chocolate!! I think this is really good book. If you like, silliness, laughter, and surprises then you should read this book!!
