Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The Roald Dahl book, not the much later movie. I read this book many many times as a kid. It was a wonderful story of opposing emotions and situation; kindness, hunger, greed, vengeance, nastiness, wonderful machines, wealth and poverty, the squirrels and the oompa loompas and the chocolate river. I will never see the movie because it cannot possibly be better than the fantastic pictures I still have in my mind.
