Description
"From the time he was a young boy, Milton Hershey loved candy. But his family was very poor and, like many families across America, they couldn't afford the best candy of all: chocolate. One day, though, Milton had a vision. With just the right blend of cacao beans and local dairy milk, could he create delicious, affordable milk chocolate for everyone - not just the rich? And could he build a chocolate business that would provide good lives in a welcoming town - and even an education for those who couldn't afford it?"--,Book jacket.
