Seriously, who doesn't love Sandra Boynton's illustrations? Her hippos, pigs, cats, and turkeys are so dang cute you almost want to throw up on them. But in a nice way.

With that in mind, this is a very funny book about being a chocolate addict. The different types of chocolate lovers are highlighted, as are recipes, how to ask, "Where is the nearest chocolate?" in various languages, and even a basic history of eating chocolate. A cute book for the chocolate lover in your life that won't make them want to throw up in any way.
