Inspired
by the popular New Orleans Chocolate shop, Blue Frog Chocolates
and it’s Legend of the Blue Frog (HERE),
the new book by Las Casas and Stone-Baker is a beautifully illustrated
and crafty tale of everyone’s favorite treat: chocolate!
Says the book’s publisher,
“Every
day, Sun God enjoys rich cacao beans, grown from the cacao
trees on the banks of the Great Pond. Wind God encourages
him to share with the people of the earth, but Sun God
refuses. So Wind God transforms into a rana azul, a blue
frog, and spies on the Sun God.
When Wind God discovers where the greedy God hides his
stash of chocolate delights, he tells los niños
from the village. The Aztec people search for the treasure
and soon discover the secret food of the Gods, the cacao
bean. This vividly illustrated book, inspired by Mayan
and Aztec art, comes complete with a recipe for hot cocoa.
¡Delicioso!” |
