I would like to be friend with Charlie. Because first, Charlie is very brave. When the varmicious kinds attack them, charlie didn't feel afraid of them. on the contrary Charlie fought with them. And second, Charlie is very kind. When everyone except Charlie doubts Mr.Wonka, Charlie believes Mr.wonka finally. So I would like to be friend with Charlie.
I enjoyed reading this book. This book is the second series of Charlie. First series is Charlie and the chocolate factory. This book that is Charlie and the great glass elevator was also very fun to read. But I think Charlie and the chocolate factory was better than Charlie and the great glass elevator. But those of books are also fun. I hope that third series of charlie publish soon. I really want to read about third series of charlie. First series is chocolate, and second series is glass elevator. You think, what will be about third series of charlie?

But Charlotte went to triumph with Wilbur. Charlotte is very kind. If I will be able to be friend with Charlotte, there are many good things. When I am in trouble, Charlotte can help me.
This is my third book. When I read the Matilda, I used 21 days to read. Matilda's page is 226. When I read the Charlie and the chocolate factory, I used 16 days to read. Charlie and chocolate factory's page is 155. When I read the Charlotte's web, I used 12 days to read. Charlotte's web's page is 184. Charlotte's web's page is longer than Charlie and chocolate factories. But I only used 12 days to read the Charlotte's web. That means, my reading speed is faster then before. And I already excited to read the English books now.
