Summary: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - A story of life.
Review: The first time I read this book, I was perhaps 8 years old. Back then, I found the book amusing, but also a bit scary, as I imagined having to live like Charlie, (and perhaps most of all, spolied as I was, only getting one chocolate bar at my birthday). As I've grown older, I've read the book over and over again, and it still frightens me, as I now understand that there actually are lots of people who can't afford to live the kind of life they should be able to. All in all, this book contains lots of fun episodes, and kids will love Charlie's adventures in the Chocolate Factory, but it will also give your children, as well as yourself, something to think about. Highly recommended!

Summary: Roald Dahl reads it best.
Review: This recording by Roald Dahl enhances the magical world of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Dahl has a natural charm and humor that can only be captured by the author himself as he reads his most popular children's story

Summary: My favorite book...
Review: Any book of Roald Dahl's grabs me. This one is my favorite, however, it brings back memories of childhood for me and how children's feelings aren't always that of an adults. I'm also a chocolate addict, so I dream of climbing into the story and visiting the magical world of Willie Wonka! :^

Summary: A boy named Charlie who has great adventure with Mr. Wonka
Review: This book is about a poor boy named Charlie, who lives with his mother, father, two grandfathers and gradmothers. They live at the edge of a great town. To find out about the details of the house, read the book. And about the rest, I'll just tell you a little. At the side of the house they live in, was the greatest chocolett factory in the world. Charlie wasn't a child like you and me who at least had different things to eat each day. His family was very poor. That's all I'm going to tell you, but the book has more to tell you! So, read the book! ...... Justine Kao, second grade

Summary: I find this an exciting book
Review: I keep this book in my heart forever, because this was the one I finished first after I learned to read. But that is not the only reason I like it. It's also very exciting, and it expresses the characters feelings very well. It's also good, because there is not a single part in it, when something bad happens, so every little child can enjoy it as well as the bigger ones. So I suggest this book to everybody, who wants read a well written, funny story

Summary: A fabulous book for all ages!!!
Review: This is one of the best books I've ever read! It really got me going. I started reading this book on 1/24/97. Since it was a Saturday, I finished it on that same day. Why? Because I couldn't stop! It was just too exciting. I think even though it's a fantasy type of book, I believe that it can be read by any age, even adults! This book has more humor than any other book I've read -besides Garfield and stuff like that. Anyway, I rate it a double thumbs up. Howard Wei American School in Japan

Review: This is a wonderful book about a selfless and likable boy, Charlie, who finally is rewarded for his suffering with a golden ticket to Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.

Summary: This book sucks
Review: Charlie shouldn't have gotten the golden ticket. All of the other kids didn't deserve to be sent home. Charlie also shouldn't have gotten complete control of the factory. The Oompa-Loompa's are very annoying and are way too hairy. The drawings are very badly drawn and I don't reccomend this book
