CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY - Celebrating 50 Whipple-Scrumptious Years in 2014 2014 marks a phenomenal fifty years since Roald Dahl’s best-loved tale CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY was first published. The story of Charlie Bucket, the five Golden Tickets, the devilish Oompa-Loompas and the amazing Mr Willy Wonka has become firmly embedded in our culture, having (twice) been reimagined for the cinema, as an opera and, just this year, as a hit West End musical. Conservative estimates suggest the original book has sold over 20 million copies worldwide; it is currently available in 55 languages. In many ways, CHARLIE is the book that defines Roald Dahl’s magic for readers all over the world. It’s a story that is passed from one generation to the next, but it is also loved by adults in their own right. Whats your favourite Roald Dahl book ??? Welcome to So Many Books, So little Time !!
