Charlie and the Chocolate Factory » (Reprint)

Kids and adults alike love Roald Dahl s deliciously wicked books. Loved for their gleefully evil villains and their often mischievous sensibility, Dahl s books introduce us to fantastic creatures and bizarre places -- and encourage our imaginations to run wild.

Each of five children lucky enough to discover an entry ticket into Mr. Willy Wonka's mysterious chocolate factory takes advantage of the situation in his own way.

Publishers Weekly

On the occasion of its 40th anniversary, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl, illus. by Quentin Blake, presents the famous story interspersed with Blake's characteristically frenetic line drawings, with clusters of candy sprinkled across the pages. Pink, lavender, baby blue and yellow backgrounds of the pages make a sugary new wrapper for this favorite tale. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
