Charlie y la fábrica de chocolate es una historia de Roald Dahl, el gran autor de literatura infantil.
El señor Wonka, dueño de la magnífica fábrica de chocolate, ha escondido cinco billetes de oro en sus chocolatinas. Quienes los encuentren serán los elegidos para visitar la fábrica. Charlie tiene la fortuna de encontrar uno de esos billetes y, a partir de ese momento, su vida cambiará para siempre. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Willy Wonka's famous chocolate factory is opening at last! But only five lucky children will be allowed inside. And the winners are: Augustus Gloop, an enormously fat boy whose hobby is eating; Veruca Salt, a spoiled-rotten brat whose parents are wrapped around her little finger; Violet Beauregarde, a dim-witted gum-chewer with the fastest jaws around; Mike Teavee, a toy pistol-toting gangster-in-training who is obsessed with television; and Charlie Bucket, Our Hero, a boy who is honest and kind, brave and true, and good and ready for the wildest time of his life!"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Roald Dahl nació en 1916 en un pueblecito de Gales (Gran Bretaña) llamado Llandaff en el seno de una familia acomodada de origen noruego. A los cuatro años pierde a su padre y a los siete entra por primera vez en contacto con el rígido sistema educativo británico que deja reflejado en algunos de sus libros, por ejemplo, en Matilda y en Boy.
Terminado el Bachillerato y en contra de las recomendaciones de su madre para que cursara estudios universitarios, empieza a trabajar en la compañía multinacional petrolífera Shell, en África. En este continente le sorprende la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Después de un entrenamiento de ocho meses, se convierte en piloto de aviación en la Royal Air Force; fue derribado en combate y tuvo que pasar seis meses hospitalizado. Después fue destinado a Londres y en Washington empezó a escribir sus aventuras de guerra. Su entrada en el mundo de la literatura infantil estuvo motivada por los cuentos que narraba a sus cuatro hijos. En 1964 publica su primera obra, Charlie y la fábrica de chocolate. Escribió también guiones para películas; concibió a famosos personajes como los Gremlins, y algunas de sus obras han sido llevadas al cine. Roald Dahl murió en Oxford, a los 74 años de edad."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
