ABSTRACT:
A children's activity book is disclosed comprising illustrated pages having openings thereon for the placement of edible candy. When the page is turned the edible candy passes through the opening and is deposited onto and completes an illustration on a subsequent page. In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, edible candy is placed into a portal at one position of an illustrated page and passed through a passageway before exiting from an outlet at a second position of the illustration. The book is designed to encourage reading by making it more enjoyable. The book has the added feature of teaching young readers about change observed through the transformation of candy from one meaning on a first page to a second meaning on a subsequent page.
