Product Information

Armistice Day: A Collection of Remembrance - Spark Interest and Educate Children about Historical Moments We meet a truly devilish chocolatier in the character of Garibaldi Chocolati who is suspiciously blasé about the end of all chocolate. His portrayal throughout the book as a pompous nitwit makes Garibaldi a character that the reader loves to hate.

Seit ihr Vater Arbeitslos ist, ist er Hausmann und ihre Mutter arbeitet in Nachtschichten für ihre Beförderung um damit über die Runden zu kommen. Jelly and her family are stunned when they hear on television that in just a few days chocolate will be gone, for ever! There is a Chocopocalypse on the horizon... can Garibaldi Chocolati the owner of the towns posh chocolate shop be trusted, or is he connected to this imminent disaster? Der Autor Chris Callaghan hat hier eine wundervolle Geschichte verfasst die einen mitnimmt in die Welt der Schokolade und der bevorstehenden Schokopokalypse. Ich finde die Idee sehr gut und vor allem passend umgesetzt. Alleine das es hier eine Schoko Zentrum Namens Mampfton gibt oder das die Leute so in die Schokoladenherstellung mit einbezogen werden gefällt mir. Und auch die Idee dass sie einfach so verschwinden könnte. Sehr gut mit einer tollen Protagonistin die mir hier gefällt und ihre Sache mit der Suche der Wahrheit gut meistert. When some weird professor tells on the news that he discovered a prophecy that says that all chocolate in the world will run out in only a couple of days at first nobody in Chompton seems to really care because duh, they live in Chompton and there’s more than enough chocolate for everyone.A fantastically realistic look at what could happen in a chocolate shortage. I love how Jelly is in a family with 1 parent who has lost their job, as these days that is the reality for a lot of people. It was cool having her grandmother live so close, and convenient for the after hours expediion Jelly ends up on. There is a lot of humour, some subtle which younger readers may not get but which made me smile a lot. I advise having some chocolate to hand when reading this as it made me want some!!! A girl can only resist for so long, alrhough I'm not as desperate as Jelly's mum was in that kitchen incident. pungent, maiden, mosaic, attempting, dog-eared, reclining, accompanied, aroma, immaculate, admiration, guaranteed, weighty, nostalgic, illuminated, delicate, bound, laboratory & luxuriously We have written a number of statements that are based on chapter 12 and 14 of the book for your KS2 class. The first thing you notice about this book is the cover which resembles the colours of a well known chocolate bar! And so begins the chaos of chocopocalypse. As each day passes we see the chocolate situation is getting more and more dire. People are hoarding chocolate, stores are turning emptier with each passing day, and there are even riots.

So when the news comes of a prophecy that all the chocolate in the world will run out, no-one’s really that bothered. There’s plenty of chocolate in Chompton. More than enough for everyone. My first time using this book. This will be a great starting point, especially with the illustrations, Thanks I decided to read this book as it was recommended to me by Suzanne Maguire (author of the Spellbound Chronicles) . Roald Dahl, a man who knew his way round a chocolate bar, would have approved of this book. Imagine how awful it would be if the world’s supplies of chocolate were threatened by an impending chocopocalypse – it doesn’t bear thinking about, but that’s what’s facing Jelly, the young hero of this book. Chocoholics both, Jelly and her gran team up to get to the bottom of this chocopocalypse, and it seems snobby posh chocolate shop owner Garibaldi Chocolati might just have something to do with it. Inventive, original and genuinely funny with a quirky cast of characters and an internal logic all of its own, kids will gobble this up.But soon the chocolate starts to run out. The Chocopocalypse is really happening. Jelly, having an enquiring nature that she probably inherited from her former-scientist Gran, investigates. Does the sinister Garibaldi Chocolati have anything to do with it? What’s Dodgy Dave up to? Why is noisy next-door neighbour Mrs Bunstable sneaking around?

Das Cover ist wie ein Schokopapier mit dunkler Schokolade umrandet und passt. Dazu sieht man Jelly für mich und Garibaldi Schokoladi. Wer das ist, erfahrt ihr im Buch, aber ich finde die beiden zu gut und auch das sie der Sache auf den Grund gehen. Also passend zum Inhalt umgesetzt. The end of the world is a common theme in books and movies and TV shows. Whether it’s a zombie apocalypse, an alien invasion or a virus that infects the whole world – we’ve seen it all. But this time it’s not about the upcoming end of the world, it’s about the end of chocolate (which is much worse though). I’m a bit sad though, that the German publishing company did not include the illustrations by Lalalimola. You can see some of them online and they are absolutely gorgeous and fit the book perfectly. Using the table sort the adjectives into comparative adjectives to complete the missing forms of each word. Your class will identify where the apostrophes need to go within the short sentences and determine whether they have been used to show possession or for a contraction.The well-paced plot is driven by an ancient prophecy discovered on Easter Egg Island - chocolate is soon going to run out in the world! The heroine, Jelly, takes it upon herself to investigate the likelihood of a Chocopocalypse and has help from her lovely family, most importantly her quirky scientist gran. I liked figuring out/finding out how the chocopocalypse starting/began/what is going on with the chocolate. Jelly had nearly reached the next level of Zombie Puppy Dash, but hearing this made her plunge the pink puppy into a huge tank of zombie dog food.
