Summary: Charlie and The Great glass Elevator
Review: This book that i reviewed is called Charlie and The Great Glass Elevator. The author of this book is Dahl Roald. My favorite character in this book is Willy Wonka. Willy Wonka is my favorite character because he was alway surprising and he never got worried when he got in to difficult sistuations. This book took place in space and the Chocolate Factory . I didn't learn anything from this book because it had crazy adventures. I would recommended this book to people who like crazy adventres.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good but not great
Review: This book was good but not great. My son and I read together and we liked it but it was not as good as the first book. It was a very strange trip through wonka world. Not gripping, but interesting.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: PUTS ALL LITERATURE TO SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: This book was the stupidest book that I have ever read,it had no imagination,it was totally confusing,and the plot kept on shifting. It made me wonder if Roald Dahl was sober when he had written this book. It sure doesn't seem that way. the point where the book totally lost me and convinced me that it wasn't even worth a 1 was the chapters in which we see what is going on in the white house! this book was totally stupid,and should never have even been published. it is a complete waste of time,and does not even hold up to the mavelous companion,published before it! mr. dahl: what were you thinking?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator
Review: This hilarious book will keep you reading! A book that you'll keep for a lifetime. You will learn about vernicious knids, wankavites and of course the great glass elevator. Try reading his other books, too. I highly recommend them for children ages 6 to 90!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: very funny
Review: This is a funny, funny book! The story is not as good as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but this book is MUCH funnier.

I've read from some of the other reviewers' comments that their children didn't really like this book because the dialogue was over their heads. That may well be true--I read this book for the first time as a teenager. I read it out loud to my parents and all three of us were practically rolling on the floor!

I think this is a great book, for what it's worth.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun and imaginative
Review: This is a good book. I enjoyed following the Bucket family (eventually EVERYONE gets aboard, even the bed), after Charlie wins the factory. Crazy things continue to happen. Analogies to real life, imaginative things, and bizarre things continue to be pictured before your eyes.
Books like this are fun to read aloud to your children or to any kid.
I docked the book one point only because the beginning is a bit slow and because it's not quite as fun as the chocolate factory.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: strange sequel
Review: We were so excited to get this sequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but were quickly bemused and disappointed. The first half takes up where the previous book left off, with Charlie, Grandpa Joe and Mr. Wonka in the glass elevator, and it quickly gets bizarre, but not necessarily in a good way. The elevator goes into outer space and the president comes into the story and a spaceship, and we get too many distractions from Charlie and Wonka. The second half is better, but I would not recommend this sequel.

Rating: 5 stars
