We recommend the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. It is a fun and exciting story about a boy named Charlie Bucket.

Charlie wants to visit Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. To get in, he needs to be lucky enough to find one of the five golden tickets hidden in a chocolate bar.

Poor Charlie could only buy a chocolate bar once a year. His family was so poor that his grandparents all shared a bed, and Charlie lived in the attic with mice.

One lucky day, Charlie found enough money to buy two chocolate bars. Even luckier still, one of those bars had a golden ticket!

Charlie and four other contest winners, Augustus Gloop, Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde, and Mike Teavee, tour the factory.

First, they saw the chocolate river, where someone fell in. Then, they went to the bubblegum area. There, someone chewed a piece of gum that turned them into a giant blueberry! What happens next? Read the book to find out!
