Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

This Roald Dahl classic is as appealing today as it was when first published in 1964. A blatant morality tale told with humour and imagination and peppered with Dahl’s delightful wit and wordplay, this story will have students holding their breath with the starving Charlie as he hopes against all odds to find a golden ticket. Then they’ll squirm with delight at the wonders of Wonka’s confections in the factory when Charlie as the winner who takes all.
