What Would Happen if You Only Ate Chocolate?

Description

I JUST WANT DESSERT! What would happen if you took it to the extreme and ate only chocolate? This humorous, fact-based cautionary tale shows the effects of too much sugar and bad nutrition on your body–and your social life! For kids who want to know the why of everything, author Thomas Kingsley Troupe takes readers down an imaginative, subtly instructive path of what ifs. If you eat only chocolate, a quick sugar rush is soon followed by rotting teeth, lack of energy, and a build-up of toxins in the body, leading to the conclusion that chocolate should be just a treat. Expressive illustrations bring these narrative nonfiction stories to life. Fun facts, tips for healthy eating, a glossary, and further resources enhance learning.
