What do Augustus Gloop, Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde, Mike Teavee, and Charlie Bucket (Our Hero) have in common? They all love chocolate. And they each have won a chance to tour the famous chocolate factory of the fabulous, but mysterious, Mr. Willy Wonka.
What happens when these five children meet Mr. Willy Wonka? What strange, exciting, and exotic things will they discover inside the chocolate factory? And what should happen if—one by one—the children disobey Mr. Wonka's orders?
This is the uproarious premise of Roald Dahl's most endearing and popular work for children.
A fun classic, we read it to our daughters (5,3) as their first chapter book and they were able to follow along the story and characters and really enjoyed it.
