Greetings to you, the lucky finder of this Gold Ticket from Mr Willy Wonka! Tremendous things are in store for you!

Charlie Bucket's life is about to change forever, thanks to one miraculous moment!

Willy Wonka, chocolate maker extraordinaire, has hidden five golden tickets in five ordinary bars of chocolate, and any child who finds one will get the chance to visit his incredible factory.

And Charlie has found one . . . But so have . . .

Augustus Gloop
- a glutton for chocolate
Veruca Salt - a spoiled and selfish brat
Violet Beauregarde - a repulsive gum-chewer
Mike Teavee - a television fiend

With a chocolate river, delectable confectionery and mysterious Oompa Loompas, Mr Wonka's factory is the most wondrous place Charlie has ever seen.

A little boy named Charlie Bucket wins one of five golden tickets to explore a chocolate factory and Mr Willy Wonka, who owns the factory, maybe giving out prizes along the way. Also includes a big fat boy who is always eating, a little girl who is chewing chewing gum all the time, a spoilt little girl who knows how to manipulate her parents, a little boy who is addicted to T.V. and of course Charlie Bucket. It's funny at points but also boring in others and if your not into books there are two films.
