Product Description
What if there were a place where you could get magical candy? Moon rocks that made you feel weightless. Jawbreakers that made you unbreakable. Or candy that gave animals temporary human intelligence and communication skills. (Imagine what your pet would say!) Four young friends, Nate, Summer, Trevor, and Pigeon, are befriended by Belinda White, the owner of a new candy shop on Main Street. However, the gray-haired, grandmotherly Mrs. White is not an ordinary candy maker. Her confections have magical side effects. Purposefully, she invites the kids on a special mission to retrieve a hidden talisman under Mt. Diablo Elementary School. However, Mrs. White is not the only magician in town in search of the ancient artifact rumored to be a fountain of youth. She is aware that Mr. Stott, the not-so-ordinary ice cream truck driver, has a few tricks of his own.

 Great Book December 18, 2008
I bought this book for my early teenage boys, they really liked it. I read it too and it was an easy entertaining book. I really enjoy this author.

This book is great! I absolutely love Brandon Mull's writing style. So imaginative, but at the same time it all seems so possible. I definitely recommend this book young adults and adults alike!

This book was really exciting. The characters were interesting and I liked the kids in the book. The plot was creative with lots of twists and turns. It had about eight different climaxes. I would highly recommend this book.
A Book with a moral: July 13, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I could not put this book down. When I first started to read this book I thought this was going to be another Charlie and the Chocolat factory story. Boy was I wrong. When I got to the middle of the book, I had to stop and find something chocolat to eat before I could continue, the plot was that mouth watering. It was a great adventure to read I recommend parents to read this one out loud to thier kids to explain the moral about candy and strangers. I can see this book becoming a movie in the near future.
 Great read for a young audience! July 2, 2008

I love reading children to young adult books that I can then share with my neices and nephews. This book would keep them interested. It prooves that an adventure based on fantasy can be placed in modern times and seem beleiveable. I really like Brandon Mull's style of writing.
