Highlands Ranch: Marc Aronson is the award-winning author of a wide variety of nonfiction works for younger readers, including Sir Walter Raleigh and the Quest for El Dorado, which received the first Robert F. Sibert Informational Book Award. Aronson will discuss and sign his new history for young readers Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom, and Science ($20.00 Houghton Mifflin Harcourt). When Marc discovered that he had sugar in his family history, he was inspired to trace the globe-spanning story of the sweet substance and to seek out the voices of those who led bitter sugar lives. With songs, oral histories, maps, and over 80 archival illustrations, here is the story of how one product allows us to see the grand currents of world history in new ways.
