Chocolate, it's been making people feel good for thousands of years.  It's comforting, it's a pick me up, and by increasing the serotonin levels in the brain, it's a little taste of joy. 
 Khadija Bint Abdullah, a girl with a talent for languages and a great desire to see the world, leaves her home in Mauritania, eager to meet new people and experience new things. Nicknamed "The Chocolate Girl" by her new friends in China because of her ability to make those around her happy, Khadija, travels to Central America and to Canada, where languages and an open heart leads to new adventures and life-long friendships.
This is the story of a joyful heart, full of curiosity, which longs to reach out and make connections.  In turn, these connections become new stories, and stories are delicious.
