Charlie & the Chocolate Factory

From the Children's book by Roald Dahl (although most of us adults suspect that we were included as part of the audience too!). Charlie goes into the Sweet Shop to buy a bar of chocolate and gets 'more than' he bargains for!! Then the ADVENTURE BEGINS...

  1. A big HIP HIP HOORAY, for Sir Paddy!!! I smiled, I laughed, I cried (yes, tears of joy sparkled in my eyes), I made the rest of the family come over to the computer screen to see and hear this...
    Everything about this is so 'spot-on' as they say- your animated reading, the FEZ!, the background music and dialog- especially the "close your eyes, make a wish" and adding the "Pure Imagination" song at the tail end! And shall we not forget to mention that you have the best actor dog since Asta?? Wow.. I am so thrilled with this recent production of yours on your blog. Our teenager daughter wants you to come out to California and read our children a story! She says if it was the 40s, that you should be a radio actor! Our teenage son wants you to come out to California and stay at our house! Well done, well done...(hands clapping)
