The Great Chocoplot: a laugh-out-loud adventure perfect for fans of Dahl and Walliams!

Product Information

So when the news comes of a prophecy that all the chocolate in the world will run out, no-one’s really that bothered. There’s plenty of chocolate in Chompton. More than enough for everyone.

I love the drama with Jelly's next-door neighbour, Jelly's family dynamics, and how Jelly works hard on keeping her dad out of trouble. Her hard work and determination pays off in the end where there is a little twist that has me hoping for more Jelly adventures. Das regelrecht schokosüchtige Mampfton und seine zum Teil etwas skurrilen Einwohner sind natürlich sehr überspitzt dargestellt, Aber genau das macht dieses Buch aus. "Schokopokalypse" ist eine sehr witzige, abwechslungsreiche, aber auch abenteuerliche Geschichte, die viel Lesespass bringt. The end of the world is a common theme in books, films, and TV. Zombie outbreaks. Alien invasions. Meteor strikes. Virus epidemics. Nuclear war. But in The Great Chocoplot, Chris Callaghan has come up with the most chilling apocalypse yet: the end of chocolate.Forum Books, Drake the Bookshop, Seven Stories and Waterstones Durham have been particularly amazing Chocoplot Heroes, so please get in touch with them.

Life for Jelly Welly—or Jennifer Wellington—is totally and utterly normal in Chompton-on-de-Lyte. She lives with her mum and dad and gran, has nosy neighbors who like to gossip, and really needs to think of a science project that will get her a good grade.This will help your class in recognising inverted commas and accurately inserting them when required. All passages are taken from Chapter 5 of the book. Your class will use the table to sort these words that can end in the suffix -ing. The words can all be found in chapters 11 of ‘The Great Chocoplot’. I liked figuring out/finding out how the chocopocalypse starting/began/what is going on with the chocolate. The Great Chocoplot is the story of young Jelly and her family who live in the chocolate factory town of Chompton-on-de-Lyte. They are devastated to hear the announcement of a chocopocalypse (the end of chocolate!) which was predicted by the ancient people of Easter Egg Island. Panic buying and rioting ensues and a cloud of depression lands on Jelly's home town. Everyone is devastated, except for the pompous confectioner, Garibaldi Chocolati. Now isn't it a bit suspicious that the owner of a chocolate shop isn't upset about a chocopocalypse? Jelly certainly thinks so, and with the help of her wonderful Gran, sets out to solve the mystery. The first thing you notice about this book is the cover which resembles the colours of a well known chocolate bar!

Jelly wohnt mit ihrer Familie in Mampfton. Wie alle Einwohner der kleinen Stadt liebt auch sie Schokolade über alles. Doch dann kommt die Horrormeldung: Die Schokopokalypse steht bevor. In wenigen Tagen soll es auf der ganzen Welt keine Schokolade mehr geben, unvorstellbar für alle Einwohner von Mampfton und so beginnen Hamsterkäufe und die ersten Personen werden im Spital eingeliefert, weil sie sich an Schokolade überessen haben. Mampfton dreht völlig durch, nur Jelly behält einigermassen die Nerven. Und obwohl sich alle schokopokalyptischen Vorzeichen bewahrheiten, hat sie plötzlich einen anderen Verdacht. Once the chapters have been read and words and meanings discussed, your class can complete our vocabulary resource. The children will use the word bank to complete the sentences. Then as an Environmental Scientist he spent a lot of time getting wet on factory roofs, measuring pollution. He left all that behind to become a Stay At Home Dad where his brain began fizzing with stories. His wife and daughter kept insisting that he wrote some of these stories down. So he did.There were a few hard truths to swallow hidden inside the story and this is the main reason why I believe the story will appeal to adults as well. For instance, Jelly comes from a family in which a parent has lost his job, which is a common occurrence nowadays. I fell in love with the subtle humor, and I appreciated that Jelly’s partner was her grandma, it was a cool idea. There is a lot of drama to follow, and the rhythm of the story unfolds at a rapid pace, so there isn’t any chance in the world to get bored. All I can say is that the story will definitely leave you craving for chocolate, especially if you give into the terrifying concept that the beloved sweet might disappear forever. The end of the world is a common theme in books and movies and TV shows. Whether it’s a zombie apocalypse, an alien invasion or a virus that infects the whole world – we’ve seen it all. But this time it’s not about the upcoming end of the world, it’s about the end of chocolate (which is much worse though).
