The Oompa- Loompas are from a land far away from where Mr Wonka’s factory is. The Oompas-Loompas lived in a land called Loompa Land and the only thing they liked to eat was cacao beans.

Augustus Gloop was eating the chocolate from the river and then suddenly he fell into the chocolate river and got sucked up the pipe. Mr and Mrs Gloop were very worried about their son, so the Oompa-Loompas took them to the fudge room to find him. The other Oompa-Loompas sang a song about Augustus.

Mr Wonka showed them an amazing machine. It was a gum machine that made a special strip of gum. The gum was like a three course meal; tomato soup, roast beef and potatoes, and blueberry pie.
