Today i sat down and read the Charlie and the Chocolate factory 1940-60ish version.
I was surprised when i reached page 67, the oompa loompas where described as, "Minature Pygmies, skin was almost black"
Later in the book, "'Hello there' said wonka speaking oompa loompa. 'I found them in the jungles of Africa; i went father than any white man has been before. i found them in the trees, all they would eat is green Caterpillars (which taste disgusting), which they mushed up in mush. they spiced it with red beetles and ecylutive(?) leaves. they love cocoa beans, however they could find just about 4 per year. so i shipped them 3000 and all, in large containers."
Innocence?

Ps. I read this because my babash (Grandma) gave it to me.
