Inside Charlie's Chocolate Factory

Inside Charlie's Chocolate Factory: The Complete Story of Willy Wonka, the Golden Ticket, and Roald Dahl's Most Famous Creation is a 2014 non-fiction book by Lucy Mangan.

The San Diego Book Review wrote, "True fans who have grown up adoring the film, and have shared it with future generations, will revel in seeing the details of Inside Charlie's Chocolate Factory come to life and re-inspire the love for the story all over again.

This is a book which must accompany viewing whichever platform your heart connects to Charlie, the boy we all dreamed we could be, befriend so we too could enjoy the spoils of the candy forest and meet the Umpa Lumpas first hand.

"[3] Kirkus Reviews called it "an effusive celebration", a "chatty volume" and concluded "Mainly for die-hard Charlie and the Chocolate Factory fans who want more than the novel itself.

"[4] School Library Journal wrote "Kids might be turned off by the nostalgic sensibility of the text and the sometimes over-the-top (and corny) jokes, but this title will especially strike a chord with fans of Dahl's work, students of classic children's literature, and those interested in the early days of modern publishing.
