A Chocolate Bar

by Sarah Ridley

An ordinary object can have an extraordinary story when you find out how it's made. This unique series, designed to support the early science curriculum, presents everyday objects as the remarkable accomplishments of nature, science, and manufacturing they truly are. Clear, accurate facts and loads of full-color photos guide young readers through the step-by-step development of each object. Then the entire process, from raw materials through production, is summarized in a fun "Follow It Through" feature near the end of each book.

About the author

Born in Suffolk, Sarah Ridley lives on the Suffolk/Essex border and is a writer and editor of educational books for children and young people. Recently, a life-long interest in history has led her to write books about the First World War, inspired by reading letters written by soldiers who served in the conflict. Brothers at War tells the story of uncovering the material held in her own family's archives. Dear Jelly sets letters written by soldier brothers to their younger sisters at its core. Teenage children keep Sarah busy when she isn't tied to her computer, and she relaxes by walking along river estuaries close to her home.

I liked this book because it showed me how alot of chocolate products we use by how they are made. This book is good to read if you want to know more about Chocolate, and how it is made and processed to become products it is made into. This book has raised my knowledge of how these products are made.
