Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Review by Rhys.
The story I am telling you about is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The setting is in a raggy old house and a posh Chocolate Factory. The main characters are Charlie Bucket, Mr and Mrs Bucket, Vueruca salt, Violet Beauregarde, Augustus Gloop, Wille Wonka, Mike Teavee, Grandma Joesphine Grandpa Joe, Grandma Goergeina, Grandpa Goerge and the Oompa Loompas. In the plot Charlie gets the LAST golden ticket and went to Wille Wonka’s chocolate factory. I think this is a Marvolous book and I would give it 5/5.I would recommend it to 3 and over.

Review by Katie
The book I’m doing a review on is James and the Giant Peach. The author of this book is Roald Dahl and the illustrator is Quentin Blake who did all the Roald Dahl pictures. The setting of James and the Giant Peach is in the Peach that is flying in the air The main characters are James, Old green Grasshopper, Centipede, Miss Spider, Small Silkworm, glamorous Glow-worm, Earthworm, lovely Ladybird last of all Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker. What happens is James has to go live with his evil Aunts. Then he flies up and up and up into the air in a Giant Peach and amazing things start to happen. I thought the book had lots of cliff hangers, but after the cliff hangers amazing things start to happen like landing some where spiecal. I would give the book a 4 and a half out of 5! I would recomend this to Ages 3 up to 17 year olds.

Review by Billy
The author is by the great Roald Dahl and Quentin Blake who does millions of Roald Dahl’s books and are astonishing together in a team or group.
The setting is in a horrible revolting house. Mr twit and Mrs twit are amazingly absolutely revolting and mean so they play tricks on each other so that’s why they revolting to each other. I feel like I would give it an amazingly 4\5 because it need to have a tiny little bit more describing words in his but nothing else so all of his other bits of writing is perfect I should say. I think 6-12 would be so good for those kids will sentinel enjoy this book so do you like this story and would you like to live in this house or not?
