Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory / Roald Dahl / Puffin Books

As with Anne, I was off to a tough start with Charlie. But as I progressed, I found myself captured by the simple story line flawlessly created by Dahl. I opened the book thinking I'm too old for Wonka's antiques. Before I knew it, I was flying down the corridors of the factory, sampling his myterious array of chocolate creation. Somehow, what seems rediculous in real life seemed completely natural with Wonka. Now I'm anxiously awaiting the movie premier!
