In "The Candymakers" by Wendy Mass, four children—Logan, Miles, Daisy, and Philip—are brought together at the Life is Sweet candy factory, where they compete to create the best candy in a top-secret competition. Each child has their own unique talents and secrets, and as they navigate challenges and unexpected twists, they form unlikely friendships and learn valuable lessons about cooperation, honesty, and the true meaning of winning. With a mix of adventure and whimsy, the story unfolds through their alternating perspectives, revealing how their lives intertwine and the magic that unfolds when creativity and teamwork come together.
