Who would you recommend this book to? Who would you think would like it ad why?

I would recommend this book to everyone, for boys and girls. But especially to kids who are maybe a little bit younger than me, all from 9 years and up. I think kids would like it because it`s about a chocolate factory and a funny story. And the book describe very good the big chocolate detail and all amazing candy. For example the gum, who make Violet Beauregarde to a blueberry. If you like fantasy and chocolate I would recommend this book to you.

5. Compare the book whit other books you have read or with films you have seen. What things have the have read got in common whit other books and films? Give exampels!

When I compare the book with the film of Charlie and the chocolate factory it`s just small details that are different between the book and the film. For examples in the book the kids have two parents with them at the factory, but in the film they just have one with them. The book is much more detailed. I think I was more” in the story” when I read the book. But I like the film, when you see all the colours and peoples. You got a face on the characters, and you can see the places. But I like the book more than the
