Synopsis

The story centers around an ordinary boy: Charlie Bucket. He is no stronger or faster than anyone else, his family is not rich, powerful or well-connected but he is the luckiest boy in the entire world, but just didn't know it yet. He lives near Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, but is so poor that he cannot buy as many Wonka bars as he would like. Charlie Bucket is the title character in the Roald Dahl childrens book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and its sequel, Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator. ...

Charlie learns from his grandparents, who are very good storytellers, that many years ago Willy Wonka opened the largest chocolate factory in the world, but spies stole his recipes so he closed the factory to all outsiders and fired all those working for him. It didn't close forever though, and suddenly he decided to allow five children to visit the factory, with one of them would winning a special prize at the end. To be selected, the children have to find one of the five golden tickets hidden beneath the ordinary wrapping paper of five ordinary Wonka bars. So, Augustus Gloop (a greedy chocoholic), Veruca Salt (a spoiled brat), Violet Beauregarde (junior bubblegum champion), Mike Teavee (who loves TV shows and violence) and Charlie Bucket (the luckiest boy in the little world) win tickets and visit the factory. Augustus Gloop is the glutton of the five main child characters in Roald Dahls Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. ... A Chocoholic is some who is or claims to be addicted to chocolate. ...

This is a listing of television programs. ... For other uses, see Violence (disambiguation). ...

"Accidents" happen while on the guided tour. The greedy Augustus falls in the chocolate river and gets accidentally sucked up and taken away to the room where they make the most delicious kind of strawberry flavoured chocolate coated fudge. Violet, ignoring Wonka's advice, tries some of his three course dinner gum and swells up like a blueberry. Veruca tries to grab a squirrel and ends up falling down the garbage chute in the direction of the incinerator (which thankfully is broken so there's about three weeks worth of rotten garbage to break her fall). Mike tries to use Wonka's chocolate television machine and ends up shrunk to about 6 inches high and has to be stretched out. For other uses, see Blueberry (disambiguation). ...

In the end, it is Charlie who wins the prize - Willy Wonka's factory.

Criticisms

Although the book has always been popular, over the years a number of prominent individuals have spoken critically of the novel. Children's novelist and literary historian John Rowe Townsend has described the book as "fantasy of an almost literally nauseating kind" and accusing it of "astonishing insensitivity" regarding the original portrayal of the Oompa-Loompas as black pygmies^[1] , although Dahl did revise this later. Another novelist, Eleanor Cameron, compared the book to the candy that forms its subject matter, commenting that it is "delectable and soothing while we are undergoing the brief sensory pleasure it affords but leaves us poorly nourished with our taste dulled for better fare".^[2] Ursula Le Guin voiced her support for this assessment in a letter to Cameron.^[3] Defenders of the book have pointed out that it was unusual for its time in being quite dark for a children's book, with the "antagonists" not being adults or monsters (as is the case even for most of Dahl's books) but the naughty children. John Rowe Townsend (born May 10, 1922) is a British childrens author. ... Eleanor Frances Butler Cameron (1912-1996) was a Canadian childrens author. ... Ursula K. Le Guin at an informal bookstore Q&A session, July 2004 Ursula Kroeber Le Guin (born October 21, 1929), is an American author. ...

Rooms

There is a selection of themed rooms in Willy Wonka's chocolate factory which highlight a certain product or product development. Children on the tour meet an ironic, somewhat disturbing calamity in many of the rooms. A good example of this is the famous Chocolate Room. Everything in the room is edible, including the grass. It has a hot-melted chocolate waterfall that mixes the chocolate to a perfect texture. There are pipes that move the chocolate to different points within the factory. Augustus Gloop falls into the chocolate river and is sucked into a pipe that goes to the Fudge Room. For other uses, see Grass (disambiguation). ...

Book revisions

The original story was quite different than the current revision. In 1961, the manuscript for "Charlie's Chocolate Boy" was born. In the original manuscript, ten golden tickets were hidden in Wonka chocolate bars every week. Mr. Wonka gave a tour of his factory every Saturday to that week's lucky recipients. In this draft, Charlie Bucket finds a ticket on his first attempt. The other nine children on the factory tour are not introduced to the reader until they meet their respective ends:

• Augustus Gloop falls in the chocolate river.
• Miranda Grope also falls in the chocolate river, despite Augustus's example.
• Wilbur Rice and Tommy Troutbeck climb in wagons running from the vanilla fudge mountain and end up in the "Pounding and Cutting Room."
• Violet Strabismus turns purple after chewing the three-course-meal gum.
• Clarence Crump, Bertie Upside, and Terence Roper each cram a whole mouthful of "warming candies" and overheat.
• Elvira Entwhistle falls foul of the squirrels in the Nut Room.

Charlie Bucket climbs into a "chocolate boy" mold in the Easter Egg room and is encased in chocolate. He is taken to Mr. Wonka's house as a present for Freddie Wonka (Mr. Wonka's son). While there, Charlie witnesses a burglary. As a reward for helping to catch the burglars, Mr. Wonka gives him his own sweet shop, "Charlie's Chocolate Shop." This original manuscript didn't include Oompa Loompas, Grandpa Joe, or most of the characters that would eventually make it into the final draft.

Responding to criticisms from the NAACP, Canadian children's author Eleanor Cameron, and others for the book's portrayal of the Oompa Loompas as dark skinned and skinny African pygmies working in Wonka’s factory for cacao beans, Dahl changed some of the text, and Schindelman replaced some illustrations (the illustrations for the British version were also changed). This new version was released in 1973 in the USA. In the revised version the Oompa Loompas are described as having funny long golden-brown hair and rosy-white skin. Their origins were also changed from Africa to fictional Loompaland.

Lost chapter

In 2005, a short chapter which had been deleted during the editing of the book circulated, entitled "Spotty Powder". The chapter featured the elimination of Miranda Piker, a "teacher's pet" with a head master father. In general sense, a teachers pet refers to a student at school who particularly respects the authority of a teacher(s), and therefore receives special treatment from the teacher(s). ... Headmaster redirects here. ...

Wonka introduces the group to a new candy that will make children temporarily appear sick so that they can miss school that day, which enrages Miranda and her father. They vow to stop the candy from being made, and storm into the secret room where it is made. Two screams are heard, and Wonka agrees with the distraught Mrs. Piker that they were surely ground into Spotty Powder, and were indeed needed all along for the recipe, as "We’ve got to use one or two schoolmasters occasionally or it wouldn’t work." He then reassures Mrs. Piker that he was joking. Mrs. Piker is escorted to the boiler room by the Oompa-Loompas, who sing a short song about how delicious Miranda's classmates will find her.
