Read this to my 7-year-old, not realizing it's the third in a series. Didn't really matter, though -- we both really enjoyed the crazy, odd adventure. Chocolate, circuses, Aztec legends, a magic tuning fork, an overflowing antique shop, more chocolate, a mysterious chocolate plantation hidden inside a wild animal park, a blind, knife-throwing chef, a library of flavors, time travel, monkeys who poop cacao beans, a Big Secret, ninjas and even more chocolate. What's not to love?
