This book is about a poor boy named Charlie who dreams about Willy Wonka’s factory. One day, it is announced that Willy Wonka will make five golden tickets that will be found in candy bars. Whoever receives a golden ticket will get a tour of the factory. Charlie gets a ticket and enjoys adventure including oompa loompas, Mr.Wonka, and the factory! This book was very well when dealing with imagery and imagination, especially once Charlie and his grandpa make it inside the Willy Wonka factory. This book, however, was a little farfetched. This book can be used many ways inside the classroom. This book can be used as a book to promote imagination. This is because of all the types of candy that were made up, the workers that were made up, and the crazy factory that was well thought out. It can also be used to teach the class about different socioeconomic statuses. This is because some of the ticket-receivers were from rich families but Charlie is from a very poor family.
