The Great Chocoplot - Author Chris Callaghan

The Great Chocoplot....

What if chocolate was about to disappear... forever? In the town of Chompton-on-de-Lyte, where everyone is obsessed with Chocablocka bars, Jelly and her gran are horrified when they hear the news: the world’s supply of chocolate is running out! But something doesn’t quite add up.

Jelly teams up with her quirky gran to uncover the truth. Their quest leads to a fancy chocolate shop, a suspiciously confident chocolatier named Garibaldi Chocolati, and a mystery that smells like mischief. Could this really be the end of chocolate – or is there a chocoplot in the works?

This hilarious and heartwarming adventure is perfect for fans of Roald Dahl and David Walliams.

Why we — and schools — love it:

• A fun, fast-paced mystery that hooks even reluctant readers.
• Cleverly weaves humor with themes of sustainability and courage.
• Great for KS2 reading groups or creative writing inspiration.
