Recommend this to candy makers everywhere. Even if you love candy you should totally read this, and if you don't love candy I think someone just came up behind you and whacked you on the head with a frying pan because this is awesome. But if you're pretty sure that didn't just happen, you should totally have your taste buds checked or your mental health. Because I love candy and I go cuckoo for candy and I should probably stop now before I go professing my love for it.

Four children have been chosen to compete in a national competition to find the tastiest confection in the country. Who will invent a candy more delicious than the Oozing Crunchorama or the Neon Lightning Chew?
Logan, the Candymaker's son, who can detect the color of chocolate by touch alone?
Miles, the boy who is allergic to merry-go-rounds and the color pink?
Daisy, the cheerful girl who can lift a fifty-pound lump of taffy like it's a feather?
Or Philip, the suit-and-tie wearing boy who's always scribbling in a secret notebook?
This sweet, charming, and cleverly crafted story, told from each contestant's perspective, is filled with mystery, friendship, and juicy revelations.

it cool I can write better
The Candymakers by Wendy Mass is a great book. It is about 4 kids competing in a candy making contest. I could not put this book down!
This is a really great book. I love how Wendy Mass gave all four points of view, and how she doesn't give anything away.
the book was pretty confusing at some points but you'll get it at the end
Did I write an review on this already? Well I'll tell you anyways. It was an book about 4 kids, Logan, Daisy, Philip and Miles in a candy competition. But winning the contest wasn't all they wanted. Philip hates Logan for a reason you don't find out until the end, Miles is allergic to bows, carnival rides, and pink for a specific reason, and Daisy is a..... well, spy. Somehow, all of these characters are connected, and have to work together to create an plan to save the candy factory from Philip's dad, who is trying to take over the company.
luv it
