Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Book • 1964
In this classic children's novel, Charlie Bucket, a destitute young boy, wins a golden ticket to tour the enigmatic and magical chocolate factory of Willy Wonka.

Alongside four other children, each with their own flaws, Charlie embarks on a journey through the factory, encountering various moral lessons and bizarre consequences for the misbehaving children.

The story highlights themes of poverty, kindness, and the importance of following rules, all set against the backdrop of a fantastical and often darkly humorous world created by Roald Dahl.
