The Top Ten

1 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Roald Dahl

There's an early version of the book with a character named Miranda Piker. The early Charlie and the Chocolate Factory had 15 kids. - Ilovestephanie

Best book ever... Must read...
Awesome narration, and the best part were the funny poems... They rocked
Roald is d best... Nobody can match him in his story endings...
