A beautiful deluxe edition of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, perfect for Roald Dahl superfans.

A special deluxe hardback edition of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, perfect for Roald Dahl fans old and new.

Charlie Bucket's life is about to change forever, thanks to one miraculous moment.

Willy Wonka, chocolate maker extraordinaire, has hidden five golden tickets in five ordinary bars of chocolate, and any child who finds one will get the chance to visit his incredible factory.

And Charlie has found one...

With a chocolate river, delectable confectionery and mysterious Oompa Loompas, Mr Wonka's factory is the most wondrous place Charlie has ever seen.

With brand new, full-colour illustrations by Armando Veve, readers will discover notes from Willy Wonka himself and souvenirs from his collection, including their very own Golden Ticket. Experience Charlie and the Chocolate Factory like never before...

This edition uses the version of Roald Dahl's text that was published before the 2022 Puffin editions.
