Evan & His Spicy Mouth
Terri Hughes-Oelrich and Dr. Debbie Millikan When Kalea visits her cousin Evan in San Diego, they discover a contest to create a healthy bar. On their baking journey, they are visited by food additive creatures like MSG, BHT, BHA, and Blue #1. They struggle with many problems and questions but ultimately send in their final heathy bar to the contest headquarters. What will they do with the winning money? Evan & His Spicy Mouth is a humorous story intended for teaching 3rd to 5th graders about food additives and sweeteners in our foods and drinks. It is a sequel to Kalea & Her Sweet Tooth. |
