Chloe sees Mr Stink every day, but she’s never spoken to him - which isn’t surprising, because he’s a tramp and he stinks.

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

A boy who only gets to eat cabbage soup for breakfast, lunch and dinner finds a Golden Ticket that will take him into Willy Wonka's magical chocolate factory.
Joining him on the tour are four horrible blighters:
Augustus Gloop - a great big greedy nincompoop, Veruca Salt - a spoiled brat, Violet Beauregarde - a repulsive little gum-chewer and Mike Teavee - a TV addict.
With a chocolate river, crafty squirrels and mysterious Oompa Loompas, Mr Wonka's chocolate factory is the strangest, most magnificent place Charlie has ever seen.
What other surprises are in store for the lucky ticket winners?

a truly wonderful book
I love Road Dahl's books and this is one his best. slightly different to both the film's. I'm always fascinated by the interpretations of Willy wonkas mannerisms as it feels every one seems to have a different idea of how he is.

Best book in the world
Best children's book I have ever listened to. Nice short chapters easy to listen to and it makes your mouth water at the thought of such wonderful food. The performance of the voices is amazing I love the songs from the ompaloompas and the marvels of the words that Roald Dahl uses. A truly amazing book

A Wonderful Childhood Memory
Hearing this story again returned me to the happy childhood memories when I read the book on many occasions. Reading it again was inspired by being taken to see the stage musical in London for a Birthday treat. It remains a timeless classic and not only for children.

Amazing narration
I impressed by its extraordinary voice and emotions. The narrator describes each person in different voice, just likely to unfold the story before my eyes!

Childhood favourite narrated marvellously
The story was as interesting to as an adult as it was to read as a child. The narrator dod a fantastic job, being able to do male and female voices superbly.

enjoyable!
Its story is so funny and fabulous!
Though you might know the story cause the movie was hit, it's more funny in reading a book.
(If my grammar is wrong, feel sorry for you. English is my second language:D )

i love his voice. background music is wonderful
It was interesting because the voice of the reader changed so many times:) The difficulty was not too high, so I could understand it even though I was a non-English speaker.

Good reason to read on!
My daughter was engaged in Matilda's story in which it has so many peculiar plots! The characters are so vivid especially the red-neck giant Miss Trunchbull! Thanks to the precocious Matilda's formidable reading list, it gave my kid good motivation to keep reading, keep searching! For us, Matilda is definitely one of the great reading materials in 2018.
