Book Reviews of Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator

Book Review: What was the point of that?
Summary: 1 Stars

While it's true that CHARLIE AND THE GREAT GLASS ELEVATOR picks right up where CHOCOLATE FACTORY left off, it does not continue on the same fun-filled path. There are adventures in space, a fight with an alien species, and many other senseless adventures which may work well in another children's story (or stories, since many of them do not work well in the same story). There is no central, cohesive plotline. There are no lessons or morals. The most glaringly absent item from this book is the sweetness and charm its predecessor.

I'll not read this again nor will I recommend it to anyone of any age.


Book Review: it's good
Summary: 3 Stars

Here's what my 4 and 6yr old have to say about it. We just finished it after reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which they loved. They liked this one less than Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but they still looked forward to reading it every night. It's true that it got boring when the characters floated around in space for so long, but they liked the part when the grandparents ate the pills--it led to a lot of mathematical calculations about how old their parents would be depending on how many pills we ate (each one makes you 20 yrs younger). Recommended!

Book Review: Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator is an excellent book
Summary: 5 Stars

Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator is an excellent.I give this book five stars because it is a creative book. I love the detials that Roald Dahl wrote. It really decribes everything very well. Charlie Bucket,Mr.Willy Wonka,Mr. and Mrs.Bucket,Grandma Josehine and Grandpa Joe,Grandpa George and Grandma Georgina were all aboard the great glass elevator. Grandma Josephine does not trust Mr.Wonka very much nor does Grandma Georgina. The Space Hotel thinks that the bed is a bomb. At the end Grandpa Joe said it has been a busy day. Charlie says "it has not begun."
