Order Now! “The Boston Chocolate Party”

by | The Boston Chocolate Party

I am very excited to share that The Boston Chocolate Party, a picture book co-authored with award-winning children’s book writer, Tami Lehman-Wilzig, will be on the shelves on October 4, 2022. Order now from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Target.

New England, December 1773
It’s time to celebrate the Janucá holiday. Joshua Mendes is excited to light the menorah, eat fried dough buñuelos, and taste the new hot chocolate drink he and his family have been making to sell to curious colonists.
But he’s also a bit sad, because times are tough and his best friend moved away amid a brewing fight for American independence.
How can the friends share their favorite holiday and love of chocolate together, while also working toward a better future for their families?
