Summary: CHARLTE AND THE CHOCOCLATE FACTORY
Review: This book is one of the greates books ever. I first thought the book would be boring till i read it. The story is about a little boy name Charlie trying to fine a golden ticket to earn a supply of chocolate to last him the rest of his life. My favorite part is at the end when he gets truck loads of chocolate to his house. I like the end because he gets loads of chocolate and that is a good ending for a book.

Summary: A great book for kids and adults
Review: I really liked this book. In this book Charlie is a poor little boy. He really wants some chocolate. Charlie only gets some on his birthday. There is a contest where if you find a golden ticket you get to go to Wonka's Chocolate Factory. Charlie really wants it. On his way home from school he found a ticket. My favorite part is when Willy Wonka gives Charlie the Chocolate Factory. Charlie is my favorite character. When they go on the tour he is the nicest kid there...

Summary: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Review: The gates of Wonka's factory are finally going to open into the public. After 10 years, Willy Wonka is inviting five members to go inside his factory by sending out golden tickets in five chocolate bars. The question is, which five! Inside a small cottage lives Charlie Bucket. His family is poor and Charlie only gets one chocolate bar a year. On his birthday when he got a chocolate bar, Charlie opened his bar and found nothing. All seemed hopeless when Charlie found a 1 dollar bill on the ground. Charlie bought two bars and in one of them was the golden ticket. Charlie was very happy because he dreamed of chocolate. He was the fifth finder. The other four finders in order were Augustus Gloop, Violet Beauregrade, Veruca Salt, and Mike Teavee...All in all, I thought the book was great. I would strongly recommend this book.

Summary: A moral tale
Review: This work was designed to instill proper moral behavor in children, something certainly needed in today's world. Dahl clearly drew on the classics to inspire and inform these works, relying upon their tried and true methods of wonder, curiosity, charisma, (and more than a little fear,) to elicit the proper resonse. He just changed things a little to make the tale relevant to children... I think that "Charlie"will be added to that list of nearly sacred tales, for the wonder of it's story, and the absolute mastery in it's telling, and finally, the simple message. BE GOOD.

In "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," The characters are random souls, thrust together and cast through a purgatory of sorts, where each child, (representing the deadly sins) is punished according to nature, estabishing and enforcing a strong moral code in the reader. They rise through the various stages devised by the master of the place, until they arrive at a state of final judgement, where the least and best of them, confesses his sins and his faults, and is found worthy and inherits the kingdom of heaven. (The chocolate factory, and all its wonders.) This is basic Dante, retold in the vein of Blake, with the social satire and subtle wit of Swift.

The intent of the work is the same as the intent of its source material. A vanitas motif, explaining our impurities, our sins, finding each of us wanting, instructing us in the proper moral path by illustrating the folly of vice, and the imperfect nature of man. What better message to teach to a child? A wonderful work that I read often (at least once a year) and I never fail to find something incredible, something new.

Summary: Cool Book
Review: "Mr. Willy Wonka has opened his worldwide known chocolate factory and has sent out five golden tickets and the children that get them and those children will be eleigible for a tour of the factory," read the evening paper. Charlie and the chocolate factory was a really cool book. It was fast paced, had a lot of good scenes and had overall a really good story that a kid or adult of any age would really enjoy. This book is about Charlie Bucket, a poor boy who wins and can go into Mr. Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. There are four other kids and they are all snotty, fat, t.v. addictive, or a gumaholic. As they move from room to room one kid misobeys the rules and they are no longer heard from. The last person left is poor Charlie Bucket...It is there where a great surprise that Charlie gets from Mr. Wonka that will change his and his families' life forever,

Summary: when bad things happen to bad children
Review: Roald Dahl was, by all accounts, a terrible human being. But he's also the author of several marvelous books for kids, some good creepy short stories for adults and a couple really good memoirs. He is best known for his great children's book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory made iconic by the classic schlocky movie version, Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

This is another one of those classics that has become so familiar that it is perhaps easy to lose sight of its pretty stern moral tone. In addition to being generally obnoxious, all four of the other kids represent some bad habit of children:

Augustus Gloomp: gluttony Verucka Salt: avarice and greed Violet Beauregarde: gum chewing Mike Teavee: excess television viewing

The obnoxious children come to various horrible ends, each in keeping with his or her particular vice. Meanwhile, it is the good child, Charlie Bucket, who is chosen to take over Wonka's business.

A very funny book that teaches simple yet valuable lessons.
