Well...Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was a book before it was a movie...so dunno about that one.

I might add that the book was better.

I still gotta read the book of that :) Was gonna read either the Oz or Hardy Boys series next, but if I see that I might get it. Chitty Chitty Bang-Bang was a book before it was a movie, too, BTW--same guy who wrote James Bond wrote it, believe it or not.
