A world of wonder on 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'

By MARAH RUIZ



The world's best chocolate is made in the world's most secretive factory by the world's oddest chocolatier.

What would you give to get inside?

After years of secrecy, the eccentric Willy Wonka announces that he is giving away five Golden Tickets that will entitle the holder to a tour of his mysterious chocolate factory.

Kindhearted Charlie Bucket is among the five lucky kids to get a hold of a Golden Ticket. He almost ends up selling the ticket to help his impoverished family, until his grandfather convinces him otherwise.

It's a good thing his grandfather convinced him ?to go because Willy Wonka's factory is something to behold. Candy grows on trees and it even has a chocolate river! He has Oompa-Loompas and highly-trained squirrels working for him. There are things in there that no human has seen before.

One of Roald Dahl's most beloved books come to life with the wild imagination of director Tim Burton. In another one of his ? kooky roles, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory stars Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka. Opposite him is a young ?? Freddie Highmore as Charlie.

How will the tour of the Willy Wonka's factory change Charlie's life?
