Review:
I love reading childhood books that bring so many memories back. The first movie with Gene Wilder was a classics. I can't even remember how many times we watched it. The new movie wasn't exactly my cup of tea, but still the same wonderful story I loved. 

This happened to be the first time I read the actual book. It was just as magical as the movies I loved and really put into perspective the nuances the movie couldn't capture. A great read.
