Candymakers

When four 12 year old kids accept the challenge to individually join the candy making contest to create the best candy of all time, they are in for a big surprise as they become friends and learn how their lives have intertwined in the past. They also learn of secrets that each one has been holding on to. Logan, the candy maker’s son has severe scars covering his face and arms. Miles, who has unique “allergies” to row boats and the color pink, has been dealing with a death of a young girl. Daisy has been a child spy her entire life and has been hired to steal the candy maker’s secret ingredient. Phillip, the snobby, rude kid (who is ultimately responsible for Logan’s scars)must deal with his business-oriented father who is preparing a hostile take-over of the entire candy factory. If only it were that simple…  Although the story has a fun plot, I believe it could have been condensed, leaving out many insignificant details.
