A Book for Children and Adults
With a childish sense of humor, a hungry pug and a curious cat research where chocolate comes from, how it is made and why they cannot eat it but humans can. We are hoping this book is just the beginning of your journey into the history and making of chocolate. This book helps to understand why the chocolate we eat matters to the farmers and our planet.
Chocolate is a beloved food. As an expert in craft chocolate, I would be delighted to curate a tasting experience that will create warm, memorable moments. Whether for corporate team building or private celebrations like birthdays and anniversaries, I can guide you and your guests through an exploration of the world’s finest chocolate. Drawing from my extensive tasting experience, I will expertly select a lineup that showcases the best of the craft chocolate industry. Let’s elevate your event with an unforgettable chocolate tasting that will leave a lasting impression.

My daughter loves this book SO much! She has it totally memorized and it so proud to read it every time. It was such a blessing to meet you at NW Chocolate Festival!
This is literally one of our daughter’s favorite books. The morning she got it, she made me read it to her 10 times in a row. I think you somehow nailed making a book that is appealing to adults in the witty wording and visuals, and the sound of the rhymes and again the visuals that are appealing.
Phoebe loves your book we read it multiple times in a row and then she has to hold it herself and just STARE at the pages and hold it extra close to her face.
What a delightful book that appeals to both young and old readers! The story of The Chocolate Seed from harvest, through the stages of production, provide a connection from table to earth. It helps children understand where our food is sourced from, as well as, all the hands that go in to making the “art” and “science” of an edible table food. Wonderful book. Thank you Nettie.
The story is written in a way that caters to all ages. I can read it to my 1 year old, who enjoys the rhythmic patterns, and my 5 year old and can read it to me. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a unique children’s gift, or something new for the bookshelf.
Love this book for the little ones. Besides being educational, the illustrations are so fun! Highly recommend!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK! The only person who loves it more than me is my 18 month old daughter! It is clever, informative, and the illustrations are breathtaking. It is a perfect little book. There are some children’s books I read because my daughter ask’s me too, but this one I enjoy every time.
I wanted to say a huge thank you for The Chocolate Seed book that you shared. My daughter is obssesed with it and we are currently reading it at least five times a day, no joke. She has learned words I have been trying to teach her for years. Cacao pod! Stone grinder! It brings me SO much joy to share this perfectly approachable story of cacao and chocolate with her. Thank you, Thank you!!
” I learn best when I have context. In her Brief Edible History of Chocolate class, she laid a foundation and built upon it using funny images, maps and historical documents to help us understand. I learned a lot.”
“Nettie is caring and fun all the while loving each child for their individuality and spunk.”
