Listened to this as an audiobook on a recent trip with my young son. He hasn’t seen the movie. He loved the book and immediately wants to listen again! It’s magical seeing it through his eyes. Two things about the narrative: in the book Charlie is honestly starving before he finds the ticket. Hard to hear. And the Oompa Loompas make up specific songs about each bad child! They’re harsh!
