Synopsis

Charlie Bucket lives on cabbage soup until he finds a golden ticket into Willy Wonka’s sealed factory. Dahl sends four horrible children in with him and lets the factory punish their particular vices. The inventiveness is delirious; the moral is as blunt as a chocolate bar.

Synopses are original catalog copy written for Every Book Ever, not publisher blurbs.
