Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator

Picking up where Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ends, Roald Dahl's 1972 sequel sends Charlie Bucket, his family and Willy Wonka shooting out of the factory in the Great Glass Elevator and into orbit around Earth. There they visit an American space hotel, baffle the President of the United States and battle the shape-shifting Vermicious Knids. Back at the factory, Wonka's rejuvenating pill, Wonka-Vite, causes fresh trouble when Charlie's grandparents take too much.
