At least, that is what her mission is supposed to be. Her mission is to steal the secret ingredient from the Life Is Sweet candy factory. We know right from the beginning that Daisy Carpenter is a spy. But the real question is this: Does Miles really know what he has seen, not just what he thinks he has seen? He speaks gibberish (well, unless you know his secret code, that is) and is overly concerned with the afterlife. Logan learns that someone is trying to steal the factory’s secret ingredient! He’s been experimenting with them for years. He knows all about the processes involved. You might think that as the son of a family of candy makers, Logan would have the definite advantage. In fact, since the factory stopped giving public tours years earlier when a child threw a toy truck into one of the machines, Logan hardly sees any other kids at all. He has spent most of his life in the factory. Like his name suggests, Logan is a sweet kid. Logan Sweet is the son of the factory owners. The four contestants have been chosen and there could not be four more unlikely children. The goal, of course, is to come up with the best new candy. The Life Is Sweet candy factory has held a contest in which four lucky winners will get to compete in a candy-making competition. It’s just that it seemed like an appropriate way to start the candy season. It’s not scary, though it does include a mystery. I thought this book would be a nice one to include as part of my October reading. Publisher: Little, Brown and Company, 2010
