Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald DahlMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A classic!!! Creative, imaginative, and heart capturing.
Roald Dahl is truly one of a kind and legendary. He always knows what it means to be a good kid. Matilda was the same. I would love to go to his museum in London.
Of course I loved the original movie back from my childhood but the book takes everything in much more detail. Describing much more about Charlie's upbringing and poor struggling livelihood with his huge household. His father supports the whole family, his wife, his grandparents, his great grand parents, and Charlie. Then he gets laid off from working at a toothpaste factory and the family goes into even more dire circumstances. Charlie was very poor and starving yet he was such a good boy. The family has hope that Charlie gets a golden ticket. All the other kids who got the golden ticket were just brats that were messed up. I enjoyed how Willy Wonka would fix them to become better. All the different kinds of chocolates was very interesting.
There is a boy who wins a golden ticket who is missing from the movie. It's funny because this boy is obsessed with tv and Willy Wonka explains how bad tv is for you and how it turns your brain to soft cheese. This is why they removed it from the movie lol because you're rewatching tv to watch the story.
