Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
From the author of The BFG and Matilda!
Willy Wonka's famous chocolate factory is opening at last! But only five lucky children will be allowed inside. And the winners are: Augustus Gloop, an enormously fat boy whose hobby is eating; Veruca Salt, a spoiled-rotten brat whose parents are wrapped around her little finger; Violet Beauregarde, a dim-witted gum-chewer with the fastest jaws around; Mike Teavee, a toy pistol-toting gangster-in-training who is obsessed with television; and Charlie Bucket, Our Hero, a boy who is honest and kind, brave and true, and good and ready for the wildest time of his life!

I grew up with the movie and never got to read the book. It’s a very short and entertaining read and brings back so many memories! Loved it! 🥰
I used to read this book when I was little. I've read it about 5 times. Maybe, it was my first novel. I did enjoy it! And I remember everything. Quentin Blake's illustrations are unforgettable as well.
