The Further Adventures of Charlie

Rating: ☆☆☆☆

Title: Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator

Author: Roald Dahl

Genre: Children's

Read: 30th July 2005



Comments: This sequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is almost as good as the original. If you ever wondered what happened to Charlie after he and Grampa Joe and Willy Wonka set off in the Great Glass elevator, this is the book for you. It's very silly with lots of ridiculous characters including the terrible aliens, 'The Vermicious Knids' (the 'K' is not silent). Good fun for everybody. Not quite up to the tip-top standard set by the original CATCF but still a rollicking good read.
