One of my favourite books growing up, but until reading this article, I never really thought to think about the author and how the book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, came to be. Ronald Dahl's life, though tragic at times, reads like a story itself.
Read the article from "The Guardian" to see if you agree with me. I'm glad he persevered, and celebrate Charlie's 50 years in print. Don't forget to check out the other book about Charlie - Charlie and the Glass Elevator. Then introduce a whole new group of readers to the world of Charlie and to Roald Dahl.
