James and the Giant Peach is a perennial bestseller about a boy?s magical journey across the sea, by one of the most beloved storytellers of our time. When James, a boy stuck living with his cantankerous aunts, is given magic crystals by a sympathetic wizard, he accidentally drops them at the foot of the peach tree outside his house, causing one of the fruits to grow the size of a house. Inside he finds oversized insects who promise him deliverance from his aunts, and soon the giant peach is rolling downhill, bound for the Atlantic Ocean and beyond on a magnificent adventure that will take James and his new friends far indeed.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a delectable classic about a child?s dreams and the eccentric chocolate-maker who makes them come true. When Willy Wonka?s hallowed chocolate factory holds a worldwide contest awarding tours to the lucky, five children emerge as winners, including a glutton, a gum-chewing nitwit, a spoiled brat, and a TV addict. Only Charlie Bucket, the story?s earnest hero, stands to win the exotic riches of Wonka?s empire?if he avoids the pitfalls of his fellow contestants and stays true to his heart.
