Book Overview
. . . Henceforth, let all ladies know that it is not THEY who need CHOCOLATE for happiness. It is CHOCOLATE that needs THEM." Edward Monkton pens a loving parable about a lady of great kindness who gives chocolate the very reason for existing-to be eaten by her! A beautifully presented must-have gift book for any woman with a weakness for the sweet stuff. The story provides the perfect excuse for eating chocolate-lots of it-making it the perfect present for special occasions ranging from birthdays, Christmas, and Valentine's Day, to Mother's Day, Easter, and more. Monkton's charming narrative accompanies his original, hand-lettered black-and-white illustrations to convey the redemptive powers of the cocoa bean transformed to the elevated plateau of confectionery confidant.

Ahhhh, Chocolate.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
That sweet, sweet love of my life!! Whatever would I do without you, oh chocolate? This book must have been written with me in mind. This book is an ode to chocolate and those of us who are lost without it. This book proves, which we who worship chocolate have always known, that chocolate would be lost without us too. If you love chocolate, then you will definitely love this book, because you will relate to every word. And you will laugh, and be secure in the knowledge that it is all about you!!

Available in the UK in upper class department stores and independent classy gift shops Edward Monkton's creations are a delight. Not to be taken seriously, this book is a great gift for friends as are all of his other books/greetings cards and products. Unique in his approach I find anyone with a sense of humour and easy going personality would love this book!
for all chocolate lovers

A short, but sweet story about a serious relationship and resolved guilt. What a generous service we perform in consuming chocolate! A great gift to accompany a box of fine chocolates.
