What is a summary of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

Carlie found the 5th golden ticket out of the five and got to go to the factory. All the other kids were rotten, Charlie wasn't. (Varuka wanted everything, Mike TV was mean and didn't do anything but watch tv, Augustes Gloop ate all this chocolate and he was just fat,fat,fat, Violet was mean and nasty and was always chewing gum.) At the end of the tour in the chocolate factory all the kids had done somthing bad on the tour so they dissapeared and Charlie won a prize. He won the WHOLE factory isn't that wonderful!!!

At the end they had a family dinner and moved into the chocolate factory.
It's about the owner of a factory finding a suitable heir to take charge because he wants to retire. The person who takes over needs to be 'pure at heart' and have an understanding of what children like in sweets.

Who is the key character of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

I would say, as the title suggests, Charlie. I say this because the story really revolves around him and his family and about him wanting the oppurtunity to visit the Chocolate Factory more than anything else and being optomistic even though his life lacks so many necessities.

I suppose Willy Wonka could also be seen as a key charcter becaue he featureS heavily throughout the story.

Hope this helps :)

They are both adapted from the Roald Dahl book, 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'.

Roald Dahl was involved in writing the screenplay for the 1971 film - Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, but because he failed to meet certain deadlines, the screenplay was completed by David Seltzer. Dahl later said that he had been disappointed in the amount of emphasis put on the Willy Wonka character and disowned the film. We can't know what he would have made of the 2005 effort, - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, because Dahl passed away in 1990.

How do you save vannesa in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory island?

In the Candy Store

Push the people back so he can leave, then run with him as the crowds chase him. Push over the crates of produce and the trash bins to slow them down.

In the Factory (end of quest)

When you return to the Chocolate Room after dealing with the fates of the other kids, Charlie is swept away on the chocolate river. Follow him by jumping to the floating objects (some sink when you step on them) and using the Whipped Cream to create temporary steps in the air.

When you come to the second rock, there is no time to use Whipped Cream if you jump to a sinking patch of candy ground. Use the Whipped Cream steps exclusively to reach the far right (three steps). You will automatically use the cane to pull Charlie out.
