The last time I had seen the young Charlie was in a glass elevator that had just come out fired up to heaven after completing a visit to the chocolate factory. In this sequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory , Mr. Willy Wonka deschabetado still as in the previous book and Grandma Josephine, and George Georgiga acids are just picky as many old world and Charlie, abuejo Joe and Mr. and Mrs. Burke are just as smart, brave and skeptical as in the previous book. I like the sequels, no doubt. Best of Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator is that in many ways extends the fantasy world of the chocolate factory and outside it. Let's a quick trip to the space where Charlie and company, in the glass elevator, defend a space capsule from the attack of Knidos Vermiciosos, beings elongated, green with red eyes and pointy tails and end again in the mysteries of factory (ooompa Loompas included with songs) with an unexpected adventure that rejuvenates and aging grandparents. Mines appear caramel and chocolate wells and the land of Menoslandia. And everywhere is the sound roaldiana imagination with unexpected events reported with the least embarrassment, while one has to "rejuvenate" with reading, fighting against the "old" readers that uneducated in the faculties of philosophy and letters. Unique and robust young adult novel. Do not stop reading it.
