A lot of young people love the fun songs from Willy Wonka. This book is an easy version that still sounds good. There is a little challenge here for an early piano player, but this book will help develop skill and get a fairly new player comfortable with playing all over and not just in positions. There are some finger numbers marked in this book to help someone get started, which is a big help. We are completely satisfied with this purchase.

This is definately a must read for all ages! It magically takes the reader into the delicious world of Willy Wonka and his mysterious Oompa Loompas while teaching us all a lesson in honesty. I dare you not to get the munchies while reading this fantastically written edible story.

This is a book full of adventures and great things.A young boy by the name of Charlie, who loves Wonka Chocolate bars.The factory is full of unbeliveable things, chocolate milk maker, gum drop trees, this place has it all! The owner of the company Mr. Wonka, has a contest, he sends out Golden Tickets on the inside of Wonka Bars. Now Charlie, a poor young boy , thinks he has no chance of winning. He lives in a small shack. Little does Charlie know, what he is about to unwrap. This book was one that kept me interested. I thought a lot of the things that went on were pretty awesome. The movie is just as good as the book. I have a fair Warning for you though, DONT WATCH THIS MOVIE IF YOUR HUNGRY!

I FIRST READ THIS TORY WHEN I WAS A CHILD AND I HAVE NEVER CHANGED THE WAY I FEEL ABOUT IT. THIS STORY HAS A GREAT USE OF IMAGINATION AND IT MAKES YOU FEEL AS IS YOU ARE IN THIS CHOCOLATE FACTORY. YOU LOOK INTO THE MIND OF WILLY WONKA AND SEE HOW A GREAT MAGICIAN IN THE CHOCOLATE BUSINESS WORKS. ALONG WITH THIS YOU SEE A CINDERELLA STORY IN PROCESS WITH CHARLIE WHO IN THE BEGINING OF THE STORY HAD NOTHING AND AT THE END ENDED UP WITH A FACTORY WHICH MAKES CHOCOLATE.

While the book version of this tale is much darker than the movie script, the overall message is valuable to 4th graders (when it was read to me), & adults alike - over indulgence, of any sort, leads to no good.... The tale always stuck w/ me, & is classic - it will stick w/ children by & large.
There are few comparisons to Dahl, when it comes to a descriptive setting, & lavish tale, w/ a lesson to boot (you in the patoot!)... My only lament is that the author is dead.
