This Book is Not Good For You

Reviews / Votes

A deliciously dark and chocolatey book full of big chunks of crazy humour and a cast of mouth-watering characters. * The Lancashire Evening Post * An entertaining, enlightening and enhancing read. * Books for Keeps * I enjoyed it very much. I would recommend it for children who love mystery stories and who like to guess what is going to happen! I love the way the author wrote it, as if she was speaking to you, and it shows that he/she had a lot of imagination! If I had to rate it out of 10, it would be an 8, because at the beginning it was a bit confusing, but as you got used to it, it was brilliant!!! * Anorak - reviewed by Catryn (10 years old) * There is no doubting the educational interest of much of this material, while the context should engage the reader with its air of complicity in eating chocolate as much as in unravelling The Secret. In character terms, the children's backgrounds are described in a graphic, even hyperbolic, way, yet still demonstrate real problems faced by young people. overall this is an entertaining, enlightening and enhancing read which should appeal to a wide age-range. * Books for Keeps * What child could resist it? A deliciously dark and chocolatey book full of big chunks of crazy humour and a cast of mouth-watering characters..."This Book is Not Good for You" is actually very good for you...the teasing, topsy-turvy world created by the scrumptious Mr Bosch is guaranteed to have you laughing all the way to the next instalment. * Lancashire Evening Post * With an evil dessert chef, a secret jungle lair inhabited by cocoa-crazed monkeys, and the most dangerous chocolate ever created, one thing's for sure - they've certainly got their work cut out for them! * National Geographic Kids *
