The story is about a poor boy called Charlie Bucket ,that wants to go the fabulous and giant Chocolate Factory.Then he has to get the golden ticket and he finds it. After that, he has a lot of adventures in the Chocolate Factory, and a lot of funny events happen. There are a lot of funny characters like the Oompa Loompas.The main characters are Charlie Bucket and Mr. Willy Wonka. I liked the book because I like sweets, chocolate, and sweets are part of the story. My favorite part was when Charlie,Veruca, Augustus, Violet and Mike saw the Oompa Loompas because they are very strange and I love the Oompa Loompas. I also like how Roald Dahl writes because he invents his own words. I recommend this book to children that love strange things, sweets and CHOCOLATE !!!! I recommend this book to children of any age.

This is a great book for all ages! The movie is great too!

Charlie and the chocolate was a good book.My favorivte character was Violet beacause she likes to chew gum and I like to chew gum too. My least favoritecharacter was Mr.Augustus Gloop beacause he is very fat. If I could change a scene in the book I would change the scene in which Mike Teavee comesout half instead of full.concluding I think you should read this book.

I liked Charlie because he was nice to others and he is very patent. I liked Whlie Wonka because he was very nice to Charlie and he gave Charlie some choclate without even asking him if he even wanted the choclate. I hated Mike Tv because he disrespected Whlie Wonka and he is so interested in playing video games all day long and those games are probably bloody and because he is also interested in lots of guns. I don't like Agustus Gloop because he is very big and fat and he likes to eat choclate all day.

"if you like chocolate and lots of it. you should read this book . all you need is some choclate and dount be currious in the factory. its as thin as paper and as fat as the world. my favorate charrictor is charly. hes kind thinks of others and has a big hart .i liked the invinting room. the ompaloomas song was the best in the invinting. mr wanka is funny and dosent care about the kids names exept charly's name.mr.wanka sends out the golden tikets ,and who ever wins the factory for the own who will win .
