This book is about a boy named Charlie who is extremely poor and barely gets enough food. Willy Wonka the chocolate maker has reopened his factory and has sent out five golden tickets. Whoever gets the tickets will be allowed to go inside the factory and receive a life time amount of food. (Probably chocolate and candy). Charlie gets one and goes with his grandpa. But inside it very unusual. The kids keep disappearing until only Charlie is left. What happens next? I recommend this book to people of all ages. This is a funny but thrilling book. No wonder its so popular! 🙃🙃

I liked this book because I like fiction and chocolate. The book's about a child named Charlie. He lives near a chocolate factory that Willy Wonka runs. He makes 5 golden tickets and the finders are the only people who will learn his secrets. Will Charlie find one?

This is such a classic book filled with excitement and basically everything you could imagine it is funny and sad at some parts. A boy names Charlie finds the golden ticket and he is very excited this means he can get a tour of the willy winks chocolate factory. Little does he know how this chocolate is made. The other kids that fins the chocolate are stuck up and find themselves in a sticky situation once inside the factory (literally). Now in the end Charlie is the only kid that makes it out of the chocolate factory in one piece.
