Rating:  Summary: chocolate fever Review: Chocolate Fever was a very good book. It was very exciting and funny. I liked it a lot. Henry Green is a boy who eats chocolate every day. He eats it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. He puts it on everything. One day he goes too far and gets chocolate fever. How can he get rid of it?
Rating:  Summary: Read when calm, if you want to be excited! Review: Henry Green eats far more chocolate than anyone you know. His typical breakfast includes chocolate cake, chocolate syrup, and chocolate milk. But one day, all that chocolate-eating catches up with him, as tiny dots (which smell of chocolate) appear all over his body. The book follows Henry's day-long adventure as he must contend with probing doctors, schoolyard bullies, and highway robbers as he seeks to come to grips with his strange malady.
This was a favorite of mine as a child, mostly because all of the individual scenes were exciting and fun to read. Henry himself doesn't have much character, but the people that he meets are colorful and memorable.
Written before America's obesity problems became headline news, the book portrays Henry as surprisingly thin. Nevertheless, there are a few good lessons to be learned, including racial harmony and eating in moderation.
Children will enjoy putting themselves in Henry's shoes as he tries to get out of what seems like an impossible situation.
Rating:  Summary: A fun book for kids! Review: Henry Green eats nothing but chocolate, and this delightful story follows Henry on a wonderful adventure as he breaks out in a "chocolate fever"! When spots start popping out all over his arms during class, his teacher whisks him off for a visit with the crazy Dr. Fargo. When Henry loses confidence in the wacky doc, he takes off and is chased through the streets by half the hospital staff! What happens next will surprise you. My first-grader (who is in his school's Gifted and Talented program) got somewhat bogged down in this, his first "chapter book" so I think the rating of ages 4-8 is a bit off. The school librarian rates it at a third through fifth grade level and I'm inclined to agree. We read it as a family and my fifth grader LOVED it!
Rating:  Summary: Humorous Tale of an Unusual Problem Review: Henry Green loves chocolate. His parents let him eat it for every meal and over everything. He thinks there is no such thing as too much chocolate. One day, however, Henry leaves for school feeling like something strange is going to happen to him. Sure enough, he looks down in class to see spots are growing on him. The doctors can't figure out what this new disease is. Can they find a cure, or will Henry be stuck with little brown spots all over forever? This is a fun, simple story that kids will love. The story moves forward quickly. Henry is a sympathetic character, and his predicament is certainly unusual and entertaining. Along the way, there are some good lessons. They might be a bit heavy handed, but the rest of the book is so much fun that few kids will really mind. This is a modern classic that will be read for years to come. It's funny and entertaining while teaching some good lessons about judging others and enjoying things in moderation.
Rating:  Summary: Awesome Book! Review: Henry, an Elementary kid, can't get enough chocolate. Chocolate Fever by Robert Kimmel Smith is a real inspiring book. The book's setting is in a place at a school. Some of the main characters are Henry Green, Mrs. Green, and the doctor. The conflict of this book is that a boy is trying to get away from the doctors because he is afraid of doctors. This book is a MUST READ BOOK because it is hilarious. He has the chocolate poxs. This book is also interesting because he is afraid of the doctors because he doesn't want to get checked out by the doctors. This is also a mystery because he has a case of the chocolate poxs. Besides this story Robert Kimmel Smith writes bedtime stories for little kids. Robert Kimmel Smith sold over 1 million books of Chocolate Fever. I think you should read this book.
Rating:  Summary: awsome book Review: Robert Kimmel Smith is an outstanding author. He wrote many books. My favorite was Jelly Belly UNTIL I read Chocolate Fever. It was by Robert Kimmel Smith also. Chocolate Fever was funny, and exciting. It kept me on my feet especially when Henry, the main character, was running from the hospital, and cops. They wanted to find out why he had brown dots all over his body. Then he found Mac. They had dinner. Mac owned a big truck loaded with furs. Mac and Henry were robbed. The robbers had guns and took them to a house. If you want to know more you can read Chocolate Fever for yourself. I decided to read this book because it is funny and exciting. Robert Kimmel Smith is a great author. I like how he shows and describes things so you understand I really like his books and I hope you do to.
