Olivia from Year 6, Saltersgate Junior School:

I absolutely loved this book when I read it and I definitely think that it is better than the movies! My favourite character is obviously Willy Wonka as he is an amazing and original character and Dahl did such a good job when creating this character. I also think it puts into perspective how some poor people do live and how hard it can be for some people. Overall I would recommend this book for anyone (even if you don’t like reading).

Dylan from Year 5:

I attend Travis St Lawrence Primary in Hatfield. I really enjoyed the book, especially when all the characters get invited to the chocolate factory. I love Roald Dahl because he is entertaining.

Francheska from Year 5:

This was outstanding. My favourite part was when they all go to the factory and have the tour and get into lots of trouble. I love Violet who turns violet after eating the gum. Roald Dahl is very funny. I go to Travis CE Primary in Hatfield.

Kain from Year 7, The Armthorpe Academy:

From having this book read to me when i was small it started my love of Roald Dahl books (The Witches is my favourite) The characters are larger than life and usually flawed! I love the way Roald Dahl doesn't care that he might upset some people with the way he treats his charaters but this makes his stories great. My favourite character is Mike TV...what a nightmare and very obnoxious. I give this book 10 our of ten because you can read and read and read it over and over again...while eating a bar of chocolate!
