Review:

I would like other kids around my age to read this book because it will teach them lessons, such as not being brat, not to think you’re so smart, and to listen to your parents and adults. Just because you’re famous, doesn’t mean you can do anything you want.

My favorite part of the story was when Charlie the little boy wins the whole factory at the end. One thing that is so cool is that Charlie loves chocolate and he wins the most famous chocolate factory in the world.

My favorite characters were Charlie and Grandpa Joe, because they did the hardest work at the factory.

The book was okay.

Differences between the movie and the book:

In the book, when Grandpa Joe got up (from his bed) the soup went into Grandma Josephine’s face, which did not happen in the movie. Also, in the book, everyone (all the kids) went to the factory with two of the parents except Charlie who went only with Grandpa Joe. In the movie, everyone went with one parent.
