The book tells the story of a young boy, Charlie Bucket, who lives in poverty in a small, two-roomed house, with his parents and his four bedridden grandparents. Charlie is a kind, sweet, caring boy who loves his family despite their shared hardships. Apart from his family, his greatest love in life is chocolate. Due to his family's extreme poverty, however, he only receives a bar once a year on his birthday.
Near to Charlie's house is the largest chocolate factory in the world, owned by Mr. Willy Wonka.
Wonka is the largest and most inventive and innovative producer of chocolate, producing all kinds of wonderful and delicious sweets, including some sweets that seem impossible (such as ice cream that never melts or chewing gum that never loses its flavour). He also creates a huge castle for Indian prince Pondicherry entirely out of chocolate, which melts shortly afterwards. As related by Charlie's Grandpa Joe, due to corporate espionage that came close to ruining the Wonka factory, Wonka closed his factory entirely, then later reopened it using mysterious never-seen workers.
After many years of this arrangement, Wonka, in a surprise move, decides to re-open his factory to the public, by initiating a lottery. Five Wonka Bars are sent out into the world which carry Golden Tickets hidden under their wrapping. Each ticket will admit the finder and one member of his/her family into the factory for a guided tour by the chocolate maker himself. A frenzy of chocolate-buying sweeps the globe. The winners of the first four tickets eventually prove to be a gluttonous pig-like boy called Augustus Gloop, a spoiled brat called Veruca Salt, a compulsive gum chewer named Violet Beauregarde and a television-obsessed little boy called Mike Teavee. As this happens, the poverty gripping Charlie's family tightens relentlessly.
By a near miracle, and at the very last second, Charlie manages to find the last Golden Ticket. Grandpa Joe rises from his bed, and the two of them enter Willy Wonka's factory along with the other winners, where they encounter Wonka's many wondrous confectionery creations - including some prototypes which cause rather hair-raising side effects. Additionally, Wonka reveals to his guests that his mysterious factory workers are the "Oompa Loompas" - a group of pygmy-sized people from the nation of Loompaland who agreed to become Wonka's workforce because of his ability to supply unlimited quantities of their greatest delicacy, the cacao bean (the raw ingredient in chocolate). Through the book, they regularly break into spontanteous verse en masse to comment on the misbehaviour of the other children and its deleterious effects.

For all four of the other Golden Ticket winners do indeed misbehave and one by one end up in bizarre, near-fatal predicaments which require removing them from the tour. Augustus Gloop drinks from Wonka's chocolate-mixing river, falls in and is sucked up by a glass pipe leading to the Fudge Room. The tight squeeze through the pipe renders him skinny. Violet Beauregarde tries an experimental piece of three-course-dinner gum, which causes her to turn blue and then swell up into a very large blueberry, requiring her to be sent to the juicing room to be squeezed back into her normal dimensions (although the blue skin is permanent). Veruca Salt is thrown down a garbage chute by squirrels trained to find and dispose of "bad nuts". Her father, attempting to rescue her, is thrown down the chute as well. Later both of them reappear covered in garbage. Mike Teavee is miniaturized by a television camera designed to deliver sample chocolate bars by TV and is thereafter sent to the gum-stretching room to be restored to his normal size (but the process is overdone, with Mike becoming a very skinny giant in the end). Each of the children pose as an allegory for the various vices found within the personalities of children in those days. Charlie is clearly outlined as the ideal child, humble, kind, and "unspoiled."
The four other children seem to represent four of the seven deadly sins, the other three being arguably represented by other characters in the story.
At the end of the story, it is revealed that the lottery was a ploy for Willy Wonka to choose his successor. As the last Golden Ticket winner left standing, Charlie inherits the factory and goes on a trip in a flying glass lift with Willy Wonka and Grandpa Joe, the story continuing in the sequel Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator.

Summary written by rmlohner

Charlie Bucket is a young boy who comes from a poor but loving family and would love nothing more than to find a golden ticket to enter the amazing chocolate factory run by inventor and owner Willy Wonka. As luck would have it, Charlie finds the last golden ticket and goes on this once-in-a-lifetime adventure with his grandpa Joe. Among the other four winners are Veruca Salt, a spoiled rich girl; Augustus Gloop, a gluttonous kid who stuffs his face with sweets; Violet Beuragarde, a champion trophy gum chewer; and Mike Teavee, a kid who spends more time watching TV and playing video games than anything else.

Willy Wonka says, "The summary of the adapted movie and the book version are different. You should check for the one from the book version (read the book story summary available at the back of the book or at the preface."

Thing 1 says, "Okay don't plagarise or I will ask the squirrel to bite your butt!."

Thing 2 says, " Yeah, bite your butt!".
